All of My Skin

I won’t continue to bind you with diamonds

Still it's all I know

I ask on your lover to hand you on over

If you’re willing to go

But you wore all my skin

On the first day of spring

And some romance I wrote

Is now too cheap to quote

Then calm you down

While I dance around

Like a clown

You took me wandering on seas of patience

Still I raise my words

Now fixed on your body in some act of pleasure

Curse the evening girls

Well I hate where you’ve been

And the state that I’m in

To love and pretend

All bare to begin

Then calm you down

While I dance around

Like a clown

Handprints on the window

Handprints on the window

Bound from all of my skin

Grow with the shadows

I’ll be the shadow

Bound from the mess that I’m in

Well there’s bread in the bin

But you wanna get thin

Wore me like a pin

On the first day of spring

Then calm me down

While you dance around

Like a clown
