Second Skin Lyrics

I'm your god inside tonight
I run a little piece of Heaven
Through the palm of my hand
I'm a savior of a lethal control and when you fall
I know exactly where the fuck you'll land

I've got a little black hold
For your every little soul
Tell me angel, did the dust settle on your wings?
You can breathe in fear 'til the day becomes a year
And we all know exactly what the future brings

My second sight, see through you
Second skin, bleed for you
I've my time on track, lying flat on my back
Staring up into your burning skies

My second sight, see through you
Second skin, bleed for you
Was I tripping up or am I falling down
I am the hero of my own demise

And my speaker, preaching to a hushed choir
About a love he once lost to an endless debate
Saying, "Don't let me be misread, but God is truly dead
If he can't help me nurse this ache."

But goddamn, the way we fall when we beckon the call
Another crafty motherfucker walks a crooked line
And now I know it's wrong and God knows I'm right
I take a stroll anytime I like

With my aching hand, reach for you
Burning skin, bleed for you
Laugh at it all until you take the fall
