SKIN

Performed by Johnny Stranger

Written by Peter Anthony

I was a stranger in my own skin

a shifting Imposter

Open me up, pour the doubt right in

I was a target

Of my own artillery

Give me a chance just to break and to show

 just what’s underneath

Bury me down beneath the canopy of stars

Drink up the apathy, sweet distilled agony far 

deeper down beneath every the scars

Run me down and get away

From every nightmare rearranged 

to cloak me in the thunderclouds

Constricting as I hit the ground

the 88s are barking 

and  The bodies are the marking

of a mind of flint and tinder

just a cinder

let me give what I’ve got

I’ll never give up again

Just let me be what I’m not

Another mirror to the end

Just let me give what I’ve got

I’ll never give up again

Just let me be what I’m not

Another mirror to the end

dragging it up again

we’re all gonna die

I just wanna die

Just let me give what I’ve got

I’ll never give up again

Just let me be what I’m not

Another mirror to the end

Just let me give what I’ve got

I’ll never give up again

Just let me be what I’m not

Another mirror to the end

dragging it up again

we’re all gonna die

I just wanna die
