Within Her Skin by Cancerslug Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2004

Her daddy raped her when she was 8 years old
His selfish action took a piece of her soul
But she would thank him when she learned how to drive
Took some gasoline and burned him alive

Went to L.A. so she could be a star
But prostitution didn't get her so far
Her daddy's face on every john
So she went out and she bought her a gun

Ooh, Within her skin
Ooh, Within her skin

She had enough and couldn't take anymore
What would she be a murderer or a whore
No fire down in hell below
Could match the pain of the life she had known

She killed so many that she couldn't keep count
Her life had fucked her but she found a way out
It gave her power that she never had
And murder paid more than the fuck ever did
Ooh, Within her skin
Ooh, Within her skin

She found a power that was hers alone
She found a way to stop the pain
She found a way to make her life her own
She found a chanel for her rage

Ooh, Within her skin
Ooh, Within her skin

She walks the streets with the pimps and the slime
But her past she has left far behind
Nobody is gonna stop her now
Even if they could somehow

So take a look deep inside yourself
You are no better than anyone else
And if you should look her way
You won't live to see another day

Ooh, Within her skin
Ooh, Within her skin

Little runaway don't cry
There is so much more time to kill
Time to kill
Little runaway don't cry
There is so much more time to kill
Time to kill

Ooh, Within her skin
Ooh, Within her skin
