lyrics

there’s a place in-between / the blood and the skin / between one too thick / the other too thin / where the plans that I had / were left & went bad / but were good to begin / there are things that I keep / & things I discard / there’s a box of those buried / deep out in the yard / I just can’t understand why / in this world / did I try / to become so hard / I’d broken my back / loading my pack / with junk that I’d found / got too heavy to haul / so I just let it fall / when no-one’s around / lord I try to be good / I wish you could see / the bad things I do / are mostly to me / but good it’s a fact / isn’t all that it’s cracked / my mind up to be / now I just can’t help / but punish myself / for letting you down / so I eat ‘til I’m green / smoke ‘til I’m steam / come ‘til I’m clean / drink ‘til I drown / but lately I’ve learned / the way to return / the way to restore / all the bridges I’ve burned / & lately I’ve been / shedding old skin / it won’t be long before / I’m a baby again.
