Broken Skin by Why Lions? Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You did me wrong
You got me hooked on blood and the silence of sickened song
It won’t be long
You’ll pay, you’ll pay - the feast is on
(You break a bone, you break a witness)
Hear my words, oh no
(Your broken skin is for my fitness)
Hear my words, oh no
[Verse 2]
If the sun makes you blind
Then we’ll go out at night
Won’t you let me inside?
I got nothing but time
[Bridge]
Fuck
It’s not so bad growing old
It’s not so bad growing cold
It’s not so bad when the fire dies
When you’ve broken down
And opened your eyes
[Outro / Verse 3]
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if I step into the sun
Will I shimmer? Should I run?
And if I melt away the days
Would you bother to see my face?
And I can’t bear to see the mirr-
Or is my picture ever clear?
As I twist this jagged smile
Can’t rest, blood pressure runnin’ wild
You did me wrong
You got me hooked on blood and the silence of sickened song
It won’t be long
You’ll pay, you’ll pay - the feast is on
(You break a bone, you break a witness)
Hear my words, oh no
(Your broken skin is for my fitness)
Hear my words, oh no
[Verse 2]
If the sun makes you blind
Then we’ll go out at night
Won’t you let me inside?
I got nothing but time
[Bridge]
Fuck
It’s not so bad growing old
It’s not so bad growing cold
It’s not so bad when the fire dies
When you’ve broken down
And opened your eyes
[Outro / Verse 3]
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if you fall into my arms I won’t feel your heartbeat
And if I step into the sun
Will I shimmer? Should I run?
And if I melt away the days
Would you bother to see my face?
And I can’t bear to see the mirr-
Or is my picture ever clear?
As I twist this jagged smile
Can’t rest, blood pressure runnin’ wild
