Now I recall you telling me that you were afraid of being alone.
Now that you have found someone you've stripped him down to the bone.
Don't you feel like you've been wrong all along.
Swallow these knives... its easier than trying to swallow your lies.

Rip the skin from my bones and wear it like a gown.
You can prance around like I let you down, like the world has let you down.

You have the most beautiful voice I've ever cursed (whats this you said to me)
It numbs the pain.. but just for the moment (will it ever return)
So turn back the clock... I've waited long enough.
Don't stop talking (make it clear)
I've been waiting (all these years too..)

Rip the skin from my bones and wear it like a gown.
You can prance around like I let you down, like the world has let you down
