Shedding Skin

I don't want you to look at me while I'm shedding skin

I can't afford for you to see what's inside me

I'd rather shoot myself than have you watch me. I

Feel you'd steal my skin to try and wear me

I was betrayed, one more day of my short life. You were

Carried away. You had no shame. To suffocate my being

I was me, but you weren't you. You were sticking to me like

a scab... So I peeled you away, and bled for days. Then

Stepped out of myself

I'm shedding skin, changing within, I'm falling in

Through swollen eyes, I dreamed you died, caught inside

I'm shedding skin, spreading thin, severed stem

I created the end, I'm killing a friend. I'm shedding my skin

I don't think you belong in here, I feel I'm sick

Don't ask because

You know damn well where I've been. I've kept a simple

Woman through the thick and thin. But I've found the guts

to sever from my Siamese twin

I throw you away. Everyday. A dead part of life. Strangling

back. Seething black. In between my longing for torture

Blood on my face that came from your face. The mix

Of kissing and bleeding. I put you away. I shut you away

I pissed you away. I threw you away

I'm shedding skin, changing within, I'm falling in

Through swollen eyes, I dreamed you died, caught inside

I'm shedding skin, spreading thin, severed stem

I created the end, I'm killing a friend. I'm shedding my skin

You're fucking, and sucking. You're friendless. It's endless

Your flower has soured. It's endless. You're friendless

It's harder. And stronger. But no one's been inside you longer

Or harder. Or deeper. To get you off, you need the fear

It's never love. Bloody touch. Broken wrist. Needle rust

Choking throat. Swallowed teeth. Head fuck. No peace

I'm shedding my skin to peel you off of me

You've got to love me

Ornament. Shrunken head. Playtoy. Snake strike. Poisonous

Syphillis. Drenched me. Soaked me

I'm shedding my skin to drain you out of me

You've got to hate me
