Lyrics
Under My Skin
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My heart beats a little faster
So loud I'm shaking in my head
For no reason
And it hurts like a needle
God I hate myself
For no reason
Quiet
Screaming
Calm down with your breathing
So I'll take two and I'll keep you here
Deep under my skin
Because it's not what I want from you
But it's what I'm used to
I'm a handgun with blood drawn
Out here shooting myself
And it's not what I want to do
But it's what it comes to
I'm stressed and yes I know I'm overweight
24 and it's really only getting worse
To give up or get hurt
I'm just gonna let it hurt
So I'll take two and I'll keep you here
Deep under my skin
Because its not what I want from you
But it's what I'm used to
I'm a handgun with blood drawn
Out here shooting myself
And it's not what I want to do
But it's what it comes to
I don't want to
I don't have to
I don't want to
I don't have to
I don't want to
I don't have to
I don't want to
I don't want to
