lyrics

there goes my skin again
there goes my skin
i'm moving inside out
i'm letting the outside in
i'm shedding all my woes
and all these scales of grief
i'm ready to move beyond
my limited belief

i been chasing my own tail
running down a rabbit hole
i got those snake bite dreams
with a snake-eye roll
now the die is cast
the past is over and done
i know this moment won't last
this is the only one

and the only one that i know i can trust
is the one who set this whole damn passion play in motion
the only way that i know i can go on my own
is tailspin crashing headfirst to the ocean

vibrations running up and down my spine
stimulate a new sensation
insulate my open mind
so i don't drown in information
hesitation, anxious dread
exit from my broken head
leave my vision clear instead so i can see

patience wearing thin
throwing caution to the wind
peeling back the outer layer
exposing flesh that's under there
staring right into the sun
burning out my retina
belly rubbing on the ground
taste the smell
feel the sound

slitherin thru the grass
like the present through the past
crawling thru the weeds
just like the way it used to be

there ain't nothing in between
the way that i think and the actions i take
destiny moving unseen behind the scenes
like a venomous snake
i'm biting the bait
i'm taking my chances
i don't know what the right answer is
i could be wrong a long long time
before i finally make up my mind

how can a person exist when they must submit to the will of the system?
how can a person exist when they must subsist on the swill in this prison?
you can't shine a bright light on a dark glass and make it a prism
ignorance truly is bliss and i'm gonna miss it when i got the wisdom
