lyrics

Please forgive me for walking away
I've been losing my mind with not much to say
And I've got this itch in the back of my head I just can't scratch
And my hands won't relax
Until my nails hold blood within their cracks
'Til my nails hold blood within their cracks

And I scratch away the flesh from my bones
To expose what’s beneath
Eating me from the inside out
And it was little images of me my mind conceived
To believe I was the root of all evil
As people we are not see through
Believe me you that it’s true
I wish to be transparent
With a red glow at my finger tips
To let you all know
That God didn't do this!

Please forgive me for walking away
I've been losing my mind with not much to say
And I've got this itch in the back of my head I just can't scratch
And my hands won't relax
Until my nails hold blood within their cracks
'Til my nails hold blood within their cracks
Deep into the meat, this skin
My old friend flesh has been driving me
Like an automobile
And if my thoughts were headlights
You'd be scared
'Til I peel you off the grill of a smile
That was meant to kill
My hood is a dinner plate
Had a thicker head but a thinner fate
Than your mind could cache/cash
'Til you form an idea that I could catch
You mammalian animals
You shouldn't relax
I’m going to dig in deep and attach
Dig deep and attach 'til my nails hold blood within their cracks
'Til my nails hold blood within their cracks

Please forgive me for walking away
I've been losing my mind with not much to say
And I've got this itch in the back of my head I just can't scratch
And my hands won't relax
Until my nails hold blood within their cracks
'Til my nails hold blood within their cracks

Knowing what you know
Would you let me hold you?
Would you let me hold you?
Knowing what you know
Would you let me hold you?
Hold you close
Knowing what you know
Would you let me hold you?
Would you let me hold you?
Knowing what you know
Would you let me hold you?
Hold you close…
