The Reflecting Skin Lyrics

Slipping down into the mercury
All tension disappears
It's been years since I've been anywhere
Anywhere but here
I dedicate this anniversary
Of truth to you in words
I have heard enough to murder me
A demonstration, please

All I want to do
Is get next to you
Sink into your skin
Into the skin you're in

Evidence has left it's mark on me
A bruised marigold
The victim hesitates heroically
I fear I'm overblown
Here's to the better half of everything
I've ever said and done
I have heard enough to murder me
A presentation, please

All I want to do
Is get next to you
Sink into your skin
Into the skin you're in

Every chemical
Every piece of you
Until nothing's left
Nothing except the things we've kept

There is no future
There is nothing for me without you

There is no future
There is nothing for me without you

Every little clue from the 612
We try to gather up, never really added up
Everything I've done in the 651
We tried to sober up, never really sobered up

Every little clue from the 612
We try to gather up, never really added up
Everything I've done in the 651
We tried to sober up, never really worked out

All I want to do
Is get next to you
Sink into your skin
Into the skin you're in

Every chemical
Every piece of you
Until nothing's left
Nothing except the things we've kept
