Dead Skin Lyrics

Artist: Crossfade
Album: Crossfade

So I'm the king of all these things,
of this mess I have made.
Such a waste,
what a shame.
My whole life is a fake.

Well I'm a bore,
and I'm sure,
I'm a thorn inside of you,
that has torn at you for years.

The alcohol,
the demerol,
these things never could replace,
what a minute with you could do,
to put a smile on my face.

I'm a bore,
and I'm sure..
I'm a thorn inside of you,
that has torn at me for years.

I can't get out of this dead skin, (I can't shed my skin)
not sure where to begin.
I can't get under my dead skin. (I can't shed my skin)
Can I sleep today?

Phenobarbitol, and alcohol these two surely will do,
to knock me out,
keep me down at least a day or two.
When I'm awake,
I can taste,
how bitter I've become,
and it's more then I can bare.

Somedays, I pray, someone will blow me away,
make it quick, but let it burn,
so I can feel my life fade.
Well I'm a waste,
and I can taste,
how bitter I've become,
and it's more then I can bare.

I can't get out of this dead skin (I can't shed my skin)
not sure where to begin.
I can't get under my dead skin. (I can't shed my skin)
Can I sleep today?

I can't shed my skin <x2>

I can't get out of this dead skin,
not sure where to begin
I can't get under my dead skin.
Can I sleep today?

I can't get out of this dead skin (I can't shake my skin)
not sure where to begin.
I can't get under my dead skin. (I can't shed my skin)
Can I sleep today?

"I can't get out of this dead skin, (I can't shed my skin)
not sure where to begin.
I can't get under my dead skin. (I can't shed my skin)
Can I sleep today?"

That entire clause is correct except for the very last word. It is not "Can I sleep today?"

Correct : Can I sleep 'til then?
