Skin

[Verse 1: Joe Black]
Insides are a gift and your skin is the wrapping
You better run little rabbit I'm unraveled and rabid
I'm always sick and in pain bloodstained and insane
Thoughts black as the veins in this brain
No friends or a phone I'm just sitting alone
Counting the holes in my skin that's exposing the bones (1, 2, 3)
I'm never gunning for nothing I need a reason
Gotta quiet the screaming I'm appeasing the demons (I'm sorry!)
Ultra-violent of course I'll stab a bitch (Bitch)
Treat her bloody corpse like a scratch and sniff
He's actually there I swear I'm not deranged
I'm missing teeth and patches of hair like I got the mange
Blood coats the walls embedded in the spackle
She keeps scratching at her shackles while I'm laughing like a jackal
I'll just show up like where the fuckin' party at?
Covered in blood wearin' nothin' but a party hat

[Chorus: Lee Carver]
Blood on my hands, blood on my clothes
Blood on my face, but I suppose
That's the nature of the beast that's within
The stains go away once I shed my skin
Blood on my hands, blood on my clothes
Blood everywhere, but I suppose
That's the nature of the beast that's within
The stains go away once I shed your skin

[Verse 2: Billy Obey]
Blood flood the street, blood cover my clothes
The house where I live is constructed of bones
So I always cut to the skeleton
Borderland, eat brains and I'm granted your intelligence
(So soon) So soon I'm developing
When I'm drenched in red I'm in my element
Hard telling if I'm human or something else
Help me I'm stuck in Hell my skin is a fuckin' cell (Well)
When blood covers me I'm like a new person
Determined to conjure demons when I'm rehearsin'
I finally purchased my ticket south so I'm locked in
Mary Magdalene who you rock with?
Top ten ways to die what a waste of life
Take a shank to your neck before I take advice
See your flesh and I'm hopin' to cut it open
Your arteries' flowin, a part of me knowin'
That I'll be soakin' up the moment, I got

[Chorus: Lee Carver]
Blood on my hands, blood on my clothes
Blood on my face, but I suppose
That's the nature of the beast that's within
The stains go away once I shed my skin
Blood on my hands, blood on my clothes
Blood everywhere, but I suppose
That's the nature of the beast that's within
The stains go away once I shed your skin

[Verse 3: Lee Carver]
Fuck around and get flayed
Pass them blunts to the left and with the right is the switchblade
Ixnay on the olicepay
If they pop in the workshop it's probably gonna get grizzly
Human skin turned ventriloquism
I skin them with the surgical precision
Take the eyes I wanna see the afterlife with their vision
My own skin is a prison, everyday bullshit repetition (Fuck)
I wanna wear your face to this blind dates
Place and pull some first forty eight shit vanish without a trace
It doesn't fit but I grab the sewing kit
Safety pin tip splits and sew shut the lips
It's a work of art the horror doesn't start
'Til you see me shamblin' down your street after dark
You could be the next hyde where I hide inside
And marinate until the night time you'll find

[Chorus: Lee Carver]
Blood on my hands, blood on my clothes
Blood on my face, but I suppose
That's the nature of the beast that's within
The stains go away once I shed my skin
Blood on my hands, blood on my clothes
Blood everywhere, but I suppose
That's the nature of the beast that's within
The stains go away once I shed your skin
