You are the poison in my veins
crippling me down to my knees
My blood begins to boil
at the thought of disease
(0:24)
What happened to
our high hopes and dreams
When there’s a war raging on
there will never be peace
(0:31)
You must be a fucking wrecking ball
when you shape every stable structure
into a crumbling home
(0.39)
And as I continue to dwell on the past
Memories of you in my head relapse
All this time we spent together it doesn’t mean shit
(0:52 When you’ve been pushing away since day one
(0:56)
Chorus
Now that I’m realizing that
this is the end
I took for granted
what you couldn’t have
You left me lifeless
with my demons within
No matter what I do
You’ll always be
Under My Skin
(1:13)
You had the world in the palm of your hand
With a clutch so tight no man could withstand
You were my life support, the thing that I craved
(1:24)
And through it all I always knew you’d
end up digging my grave
(1:30)
This delusion has become my reality
I can feel your presence under my skin
Don’t dig me a grave
and tell me to get in
(1:45)
But I know by now that it just couldn’t be
And I’ve accepted that I'm where I always needed to be
I’m taking some time to figure this out by myself
You’re just another roadblock I’m pushing under my belt
(2:02)
Because in the end it was you, It wasn’t me
You were consumed by all your insecurities.
And I tried to help you out of the dark
But you’d been pushing away since day one
(2:18)
In the End
I took for granted
What you couldn’t have
(2:50) Chorus
Now that I’m realizing that
this is the end
I took for granted
what you couldn’t have
You left me lifeless
with my demons within
(3:01)
No matter what I do
You’ll always be
Under My Skin
