lyrics

Let's play with knives
It's an easy way to win
But there aren't enough knives in this house
Let's play with guns
It's an easy way to lose
But there aren't enough guns in this house
You're only good enough
for one thing
he said and poured himself a drink
The past is what you tell
people it is
Now take off your clothes and count back from three
I'll show you my crime
It's a pantomime
He said and then it started to stick
She thought about water the anonymous friend
that washed her face when it was covered in tricks
You little asshole,
you fucking bore
chew on the heartbreaker crushing your jaw
I don't like the lights, I don't feel the reds
Just give me a packet of your famous cigarettes
Your skin'll get you through
Your skin'll get you through
There's enough of it on me
To cover you
Baby
Contradict her solitude
the wolf can stay with her for good
and we'll injure instruments with spirits to go
Every person worth their soul
has you to answer to
The cure is in the right proof
Keep me awake, if I fall asleep
I don't know where I'll go
Put on a record, mix a bad drink
anything to keep me from him
You skin'll get you through
Your skin'll get you through
There's enough of it on me
To cover you
Baby
Tell me everything about you that you can spare
I'm ashamed to ask and lonely over here
You don't know why the secret
has a tattoo of a lie that says get filthy or learn to die
You look down on me cos I need some TV
to distract me from the intimate floor
You say people are shit, they'll nod and they'll sit
but they'll never pull it out of you
I don't want to talk about the shadow of time
The past is what you tell your mother it is
I'm gonna learn the alphabet from A to Z
so I can misspell your name during class in a note
From me to you, I learnt what to do
Your skin'll get you through
Your skin'll get you through
There's enough of it on me to cover you
Baby
