You're as sharp as a knife
|
And you fit like a glove
|
That is no way to live
|
That is no way to love
|
Full of fear in your skin
|
And the weakness in giving in
|
|
Stabbed in the back but you feel no pain
|
Push the heaviest doors
|
That you can't open
|
Yeah they tied me up
|
And my body lies still, again
|
|
You're as bright as the sun
|
And as bold as the moon
|
I don't know when you'll break
|
But it's going be soon
|
If my will caves in. I'll be in the same
|
Boat as you
|
|
I've got the salt skin
|
Running to where he is
|
Never going to give in
|
Even with the strength
|
He's stealing salt skin
|
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
|
just to understand the meaning of
|
|
Hands on strings and my mouth open
|
Find the perfect words
|
That I've not spoken
|
And I won't tell the truth
|
Unless you want me to
|
For all of the times that I lost my head
|
When it rolled to the floor
|
And I found it again
|
But when it come back
|
I didn't know my own name
|
|
I've got the salt skin
|
Running to where he is
|
Never going to give in
|
Even with the strength
|
He's stealing salt skin
|
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
|
Just to understand the meaning of
|
|
I've got the salt skin
|
Running to where he is
|
Never going to give in
|
Even with the strength
|
He's stealing salt skin
|
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
|
Just to understand the meaning of
|
