Skin Hunter
1978, a loner on the freeway
Victim to your primordial side
Shattered glass and shallow mind
Temptation rules to bound and gag
Tossed in the back of a Cadillac
Cigarette stains and stale ash
Muffled panic and rope rash
Burn into mildew and oiled steel
Lost to direction, sound, or reality
Carried off to someplace else
Cruel and hollow, an earthly hell
I am not somebody else
I am the same as you could've been
Auctioned off my human shelf
Chained to a wall in the skin hunter's den
Free this body from my cold cell
Give back my strength and my free will
Slave to man, enslaved to taste
Please don't forget my name or face
I am not somebody else
Listen up now and hear me out
Sold straight off my human shelf
Break the silence in secret vows
Free this body from my cold cell
Give back my strength and my free will
Slave to man, enslaved to taste
Escape again from this foul place
Dull eyes, dead eyes
Return the light unto my sight
Needle, need holes
Channel my urge to fight back
Can't find, won't find
Fall farther into dry rot
Under, sunder
Broken bones from buckshot
Shed the thinner skin
Set fire to the den
Out or farther in
Identical twins
Bright eyes, cold ice
Harvester of my insides
Needle, blood holes
What did my skin look like
Emaciated, desecrated
Bury me in a dumpster
Beauty, wonder
This body is your own
Shed the thinner skin
Set fire to the den
Out or farther in
Identical twins
Victim to your primordial side
Shattered glass and shallow mind
Temptation rules to bound and gag
Tossed in the back of a Cadillac
Cigarette stains and stale ash
Muffled panic and rope rash
Burn into mildew and oiled steel
Lost to direction, sound, or reality
Carried off to someplace else
Cruel and hollow, an earthly hell
I am not somebody else
I am the same as you could've been
Auctioned off my human shelf
Chained to a wall in the skin hunter's den
Free this body from my cold cell
Give back my strength and my free will
Slave to man, enslaved to taste
Please don't forget my name or face
I am not somebody else
Listen up now and hear me out
Sold straight off my human shelf
Break the silence in secret vows
Free this body from my cold cell
Give back my strength and my free will
Slave to man, enslaved to taste
Escape again from this foul place
Dull eyes, dead eyes
Return the light unto my sight
Needle, need holes
Channel my urge to fight back
Can't find, won't find
Fall farther into dry rot
Under, sunder
Broken bones from buckshot
Shed the thinner skin
Set fire to the den
Out or farther in
Identical twins
Bright eyes, cold ice
Harvester of my insides
Needle, blood holes
What did my skin look like
Emaciated, desecrated
Bury me in a dumpster
Beauty, wonder
This body is your own
Shed the thinner skin
Set fire to the den
Out or farther in
Identical twins
