Brand New Skin

What does it take to get this through to you?

Subject yourself to things that you deserve

Just stop me if you've heard enough

Of what you should have said and done

Like promises that never last

You can waste your whole life

You'll never get the best of mine

This brand new skin is wearing thin

And you'll never know until it's gone

How far you go just to destroy yourself

Tuck in your self esteem, it's falling out

Tomorrow may come easier like yesterday was never there

Surprising as it always seems

You could take a lifetime

You'll never get the best of mine

I'll stay the "maybe" that waits on you

Now I'm "pathetic" for letting go

Just think of this as a lesson learned

To never take advantage of the people that depend on you
