“Under The Skin”
You don’t know the real me
I keep it hidden way beneath
I concentrate and try to breathe
Ever concealing my disease
Ever concealing my disease
I feel the rage inside
And all the baggage that it hides
It’s getting harder every time
To keep away this weary mind
To keep away this weary mind
(Chorus)
You see the pride
You see the lies
You’ve been denied
A view from within
I feel the cold
I feel the holes
I feel the mold
Under the skin
If you can’t see my disguise
Remove the wool from your eyes
I’ve been swimming in my lies
Holding the breathe of my demise
Holding my breathe in my demise
I can’t remember how I fell
Or how I got into this cell
I know it hurt like hell
To this I bid farewell
To this I bid farewell
(Chorus)
I am a shameful fraud
And at the inner self in gnaws
My head declares martial law
From this I withdraw
From this I withdraw
I’ve been down so long
All that was right is turned wrong
And when the sun comes along
Not sure where I belong
Not sure where I belong
