Thickskin

I sold my soul for you You cut my life in two Nightmares from what I’ve seen And where I’ve been Made me run from you again Controlling, Big Brother’s eye Containment? I’d rather die We’re all part of a new generation Sold our souls to the next temptation Lead us not to our own damnation I’ve seen what hatred brings I’ve seen the flesh of kings Blinded my eyes, my mouth You’ve sewn it shut Protecting me from fucking up? Controlling, Big Brother’s eye Containment? I’d rather die We’re all part of a new generation Sold our souls to the next temptation Lead us not to our own damnation We’re all part of a new generation Sold our souls to the next temptation Lead us not to our own damnation We’re all part of a new generation Sold our souls to the next temptation Lead us not to our own damnation New generation New generation New generation

I feel the things I said But never said how I felt I know I waited much to long Could I get it in your head Without a hit below the belt Looking back it seems that I Went about it all wrong Lying alone in the bed we made Watching headlights on the shades The ghost that’s sleeping by your side Are my promises to you that died To you that died Was it long ago When forever was our friend But now freedom’s what I feel inside It hurts so much to let you go To know we’ll never touch again When I walk, if I fall down Can I take it in the stride? Lying alone in the bed we made Watching headlights on the shades The ghost that’s sleeping by your side Are my promises to you that died To you that died I might let you go But I’ll never go away I might let you go But I’ll never go away I feel the things I said But never said how I felt I know I waited much to long Lying alone in the bed we made Watching headlights on the shades The ghost that’s sleeping by your side Are my promises that died Lying alone in the bed we made Watching headlights on the shades The ghost that’s sleeping by your side Are my promises to you that died To you that died To you that died

Everything’s changed All ties are strained, to say the least Concepts deranged It’s just the way I see you I only see the real you You can’t swallow me I’m jagged as the pill you choke on You can’t swallow me me As long as I can see the real you I can’t be blamed To feel this way and more and more Everything’s strange It’s just the way I see you I only see the real you You can’t swallow me I’m jagged as the pill you choke on You can’t swallow me me As long as I can see the real you The real you The real you I won’t let you pull me down I got my shit together now I won’t let you pull me down I got my shit together It’s just the way I see you I only see the real you You can’t swallow me I’m jagged as the pill you choke on You can’t swallow me me As long as I can see Everything’s changed All ties are strained, to say the least Everything’s strange

As the day breaks through the doorway And I’m still chained to this house But you call me and I follow And act like I’m so proud Still reading the sidewalk And it smells loke mourning news And I don’t know why I still can’t Seem to pull away from you Watch the window Time means nothing Watch the window ‘Till I see you coming Born a beggar Will you ever See me more than Pavlov’s hungry dog See no colours Live another day To feed on everthing you are And you are.... When the day sleeps and the sunshine No longer burns my eyes And the sound of your footsteps Is the only thing that lies Between me and the feeling That life is these four walls That cage me in completely Just waiting on your call Watch the window Time means nothing Watch the window ‘Till I see you coming Born a beggar Will you ever See me more than Pavlov’s hungry dog See no colours Live another day To feed on everthing you are On everything you are I run for you and fall so hard My secrets are buried in the yard Born a beggar Will you ever See me more than Pavlov’s hungry dog See no colours Live another day To feed on everthing you are Born a beggar Will you ever See me more than Pavlov’s hungry dog See no colours Live another day To feed on everthing you are On everything you are On everything you are On everything you are

Eightball hanging overhead Flushed out like Frankenstein One more for the living dead That’s not me this time Knocked down I’ve beed down before yet still We all bare the load If I could want it anymore I just might explode All your heroes have died and left you to Rise form the ashes and live for today Can you take it all When we’re standing tall We don’t need a wall Built around us Jump into the flame One and all the same We won’t feel no pain Thick is the skin Thick is the skin Outside still looking in I’ll keep what I’ve made mine Timebomb strapped to my chin Step down or fall in line All your heroes have died and left you to Rise form the ashes and live for today Can you take it all When we’re standing tall We don’t need a wall Built around us Jump into the flame One and all the same We won’t feel no pain Thick is the skin Thick is the skin Can you take it all When we’re standing tall We don’t need a wall Built around us Jump into the flame One and all the same We won’t feel no pain Thick is the skin Can you take it all When we’re standing tall We don’t need a wall Built around us Jump into the flame One and all the same We won’t feel no pain Thick is the skin Thick is the skin Thick is the skin Thick is the skin

I never promised you the sunshine You never handed me the moon We’re pulling threads out of our faded silver lining We’ve grown out of our cocoon The last train is leaving There is nothing more that I can say I didn’t mean to bring you down I guess I’ll see you around I left the best of my intenions Took it one day at a time It’s not like all is lost or that the world is ending We’ve just fallen from the vine The last train is leaving There is nothing more that I can say I didn’t mean to bring you down I guess I’ll see you around Well, I’ll see you around Whatever direction we go Rest assured the one thing we know Things just really didn’t go our way It’s not like all is lost or that the world is ending We’ve just fallen from the vine The last train is leaving There is nothing more that I can say I didn’t mean to bring you down The last train is leaving There is nothing more that I can say I didn’t mean to bring you down I guess I’ll see you around Well, I’ll see you around

You’re testing my patience I’ve got nothing but time You’ll never break down the walls in my mind Your fetishes are nothing more that a game When I truly test your threshold of pain Let me be in your ceremony Burn me in your ritual I can rise with you below me We’ll walk in time as we Fall into the mouth of voodoo Then we can shine, shine, shine And I’m sure the sun won’t mind Then we can shine, shine, shine Your love is so blinding My lust is a curse It’s painful to wonder But waiting is worse You stick in your pins, now it’s taking its toll Crush and obsession leave scars on your soul Let me be in your ceremony Burn me in your ritual I can rise with you below me We’ll walk in time as we Fall into the mouth of voodoo Then we can shine, shine, shine And I’m sure the sun won’t mind Then we can shine, shine, shine Then we can shine, shine, shine And I’m sure the sun won’t mind Then we can shine, shine, shine Let me be in your ceremony Burn me in your ritual I can rise with you below me We’ll walk in time as we Fall into the mouth of voodoo Then we can shine, shine, shine And I’m sure the sun won’t mind Then we can shine, shine, shine Then we can shine, shine, shine And I’m sure the sun won’t mind Then we can shine, shine, shine

There’s a sound in my head Holy wine, breaking bread Between time and what we said Drifts the innocence we’ve shed In this moment there’s a day For a sad and broken babe There’s a fracture on this Hallowed ground where we klay One light burns and one light fades Behind the door are better days When the light shines on me I’ll know the world still turns One light burns One light burns There’s a prayer on the wall One by one say them all Why we run before we crawl Stands the reasons that we fall In the flower there’s a fire Sublime but so surreal There’s a fracture on this Sacred ground to be healed One light burns, one light fades Behind the door are better days When the light shines on me I’ll know the world still turns One light burns One light burns One light burns One light burns and one light fades Behind the door are better days When the light shines on me I’ll know the world still turns One light burns, one light fades Behind the door are better days When the light shines on me I’ll know the world still turns One light burns, one light fades Behind the door are better days When the light shines on me I’ll know the world still turns One light burns One light burns One light burns

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain The wind would whisper and I'd think of you And all the tears you cried, that called my name But when you needed me I came through And when you needed me I came through Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand Love letters in the sand - I remember you Through the sleepless nights and every endless day I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you Paint a picture of the days gone by When love went blind but you would make me see I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes So that I knew that you were there for me Time after time you were there for me Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand Love letters in the sand - I remember you Through the sleepless nights and every endless day I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you We've had our share of hard times But that's the price we paid And through it all we kept the promise that we made I swear you'll never be lonely Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand Love letters in the sand - I remember you Through the sleepless nights and every endless day I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you Remember you Remember you Remember you Remember you Remember you Remember you, you, you, you, you

I have been here for so long I’ve carried all the weight ‘Till something pulls me underneath the tide Climb to where the air is thin so I can breathe again Still it makes me wonder deep inside Nothing’s free No-one bleeds We’re all machines Shadows of your sins are following you When it sucks you in it’s swallowing you King of the mountain, that’s what I am Everybodys’s someone else’s sacrificial lamb Space between the world and me, defying gravity ‘Til something pulls me closer to the ground Drink the chemicals we spill Our eye is on the kill While hell is freezing over, over Nothing’s free No-one bleeds We’re all machines Shadows of your sins are following you When it sucks you in it’s swallowing you King of the mountain, that’s what I am Everybodys’s someone else’s sacrificial lamb Shadows of your sins are following you When it sucks you in it’s swallowing you King of the mountain, that’s what I am Everybodys’s someone else’s sacrificial Shadows of your sins are following you When it sucks you in it’s swallowing you King of the mountain, that’s what I am Everybodys’s someone else’s sacrificial lamb Lamb

Building shrines to gods you’ll never know Praying for rain, settling for snow Spinning out of times to beats impaired Do you know your name, do you even care? Can you live your life Staring at the lights Naked on the ice If it comes too fast Will you get it back When it all goes black Down Going down Going down from Down from underground The icons that you hail are all mechanical Feeling the pull, lost in the fold Digging through a hole of discontent What did you learn? Or did you forget? Can you live your life Staring at the lights Naked on the ice If it comes too fast Will you get it back When it all goes black Down Going down Going down from Down from underground Down Going down Going down from Down from underground And just what should real life be? Why don’t you show me the fiction of reality? This so called life that I see And just what real life should be Can’t be what you have shown me If it comes too fast Will you get it back When it all goes black Down Going down Going down from Down from underground Down Going down Going down from Down from underground
