Skin

We cut our skin, I let her blood touch mine
Now I feel better that we're friends for life
"Hey man, whatever gets you through the night..."
I sleep forever like I'm scared to die
Ma' bought a ticket so I'm headed home
Don't know where from there I'll roam
Sometimes I think I'm better off alone
And then I pick up the telephone

All that I can ask of you
Is for the love left over from a childhood doom
And all that I would ask of you
Is for the love left over from a childhood bloom

I dreamt I was lost and cold
Without a lover, without a home
Yet, I was smiling from ear to ear
Got nothing to lose and you got nothing to fear
"And that's the problem with you in my life..."
See, I'm committed to the flesh of time
Sorrow escapes the meaningless
And then it drowns you before you're dead

All that I could give to you
Is the love left over from a childhood doom
And all that I would ask of you
Is for the love left over from a childhood bloom

Oh, it's all gone, gone...
