Beneath My Skin - Stemm

Darkness fills the whole house

Like a shadow in the shade

Cuz the life you live

Is the life you blame

Now I’m left standing in the rain?

All I wanted was for you to believe

In the only thing that made me feel so free

And now I’m tearing down all that I started

Today is the last time

You crawl beneath my skin

Sever the life-line

That I used to let you in

And the scars remain

Where you carved your name

And now I’m tearing down everything left of you

Silence fills the holes now

Where I used to feel no shame

And I feel you standing above me

Like a lion stalks his prey

(Now) All I want is for you to bleed

I’m not as close as you seem to think

And now I’m tearing down all that I started

Today is the last time

You crawl beneath my skin

Sever the life-line

That I used to let you in

And the scars remain

Where you carved your name

And now I’m tearing down everything left of you

Oh

All that’s left of you

Oh

Shed my skin of you

Was it happiness you found?

When you were pushing me around?

Yet I hold the flame to hope and my desires

Ashes of a burned heart

But did not ask for this

Today is the last time

You crawl beneath my skin

Sever the life-line

That I used to let you in

And the scars remain

Where you carved your name

And now I’m tearing down everything left of…

Today is the last time

Today is the last time

Today is the last time

Today is the last time

And the scars remain

Where you carved your name

And now I’m tearing down everything left of

Nothing more to give you

As I hold the flame to hope and my desires
