the man with no skin

Lyrics

if i could crawl into a shell, then i wouldn't mind the weight, things are heavy enough already, and i hate to think that, the best that i can do is not care at all, and i hate to think that, i don't care at all, take a step forwards, don't be afraid, take a step backwards, don't be afraid, so go on, so look back, stuck inside a heavy shell, try to walk and not be pushed, and the man with no skin, they would not let him in, would not let him sign up, because nobody wants to see, a beating heart, or a lung, or a brain, used to get so caught up, used to get all wrapped up, now i find myself feeling, disillusioned and emotionless, like i've been betrayed, this world let me down, in a big way, now i feel like a dumb ape, picking at fleas, picking at fleas, and the man with no skin, they would not let him in, would not let him sign up, because nobody wants to see a, beating heart, or a lung, or a brain, it's hard to walk with broken legs, it gets hard to breathe without lungs, it's hard to love the world, without a heart, what else should i cut out?, where do i start?, and the man with no skin, they would not let him in, would not let him sign up, because nobody wants to see a, beating heart, or a lung, or a brain, it's time to grow a second skin, to keep the insides in, because this one is obviously, not thick enough, it's time to grow a second skin, to keep the insides in, or maybe get some armour, and a mask, or maybe get some armour, and a mask
