Skin

Out of sight and out of mind, when you look at yourself do you find

Everything you want to be or do you see what I see.

Too late to change your life, step outside and say good-bye

To everything you left behind, what you seek you may not find.

As I shed my skin, I leave you behind

As I shed my skin, I go on to a better life.

Indecision fills my head, all the things I left unsaid,

My heart is letting go, my pain you'll never know.

If you love something set it free, what I love you took from me.

Try to look, but you can't see, try to put the past behind me.

How could you think it lasts forever, I sit and watch as you decline

Can't you see it's gone forever, out of sight and out of mind.

Twisted, broken, I sit and watch as you decline

Help me, help yourself, out of sight and out of mind.

I see you now in a different plane; broken, used up, pathetic, in pain,

You scream and fight, deny the shame, your selfish heart is the one to blame.

So much time has filled the space since we've been standing face to face.

Wasted breath I've tried to explain, still I see not a thing has changed.
