Skin and Bones

Skin and Bones

08-04-2010 to 09-19-2010

Chorus:

I’m just skin and bones,

No matter what I do,

I feel like I’m going around in circles,

Left out in the humidity to die…

Oh, I’m just skin and bones,

I look worse every day,

And I still can’t seem to find

Enough food to survive anymore.

Lost out here in the middle of nowhere

Unwillingly anorexic,

I keep moving towards an end that looks satisfying…

A possibility I can cling onto that will

Bring promising results in the end.

Pre-Chorus

I want you to know that despite a couple mis-steps,

I really did try to find myself a job.

Nobody is perfect,

And I can’t choose the outcome of destiny,

Nor can I decide how strong this economy will be.

I’m just a rare mind in a rough world

That cannot appreciate the gifts I can bring…

Chorus

Crawling along,

Just grasping for a hand to pull me

Out of the quicksand.

I’m sinking farther into debt…

Farther into this wreck of a lifestyle

That brings only consequences and no rewards…

I find myself back at the start again!

Pre-Chorus

Chorus

Dehydration and Hunger have settled in…

As I take my last few breaths…

I contemplate all my decisions

And question why they had to happen,

And why I had to accept fate this way…
