Cut Beneath The Skin

Well you traced back the lines to my former self

So quietly that I couldn't even tell

There I was, and there you were in my former hell

And there I knew that you had broken through my shell

You were hot to the touch, yeah you burned so bright

Then got so cold it's like it couldn't have been right

But I've seen this before and this time I'll fight it

I'll watch this old flame finally go out tonight

'Cause the ghost of you has returned again

And I swear this time I think I can win

'Cause my heart's now stronger than it was back then

Still here I am cut beneath the skin

You tore at me again 'til the wound felt fresh

And uncovered all I thought I'd put to rest

All the stitches in the world could never fix the flesh

If this story keeps repeating itself again

But maybe deep down

You know you were the only one, only one who got to me

And I could leave now

But I know I'd still be right back at the beginning

'Cause the ghost of you has returned again

And I swore this time I thought I could win

'Cause my heart's now stronger than it was back then

Still here I am cut beneath the skin

Yeah the ghost of you has returned again

And I swore this time I wouldn't let you in

'Cause my heart's now colder than it was back then

Still here I am cut beneath the skin

Here I am cut beneath the skin
