EPIDERMIA
This suit is tailored but it still doesn't quite fit
And I don't smoke but yet I'm still trying to quit
Even the devil once wore wings
Yeah I know and it feels like I'm running
OUT… RUNNING OUT OF L-U-C-K AND
NOW… NOW WE WATCH THE CLOCK JUST TICK AWAY
This epidermis is starting to creep me out
And all this choking-choking's leaving my throat in drought
You just might be out of your mind
That's ok cuz so am I
But if you're not with me
Than you're against me
I'm hospitable
To hostility
Will you ever get over this
I dunno but I'm pissed and I'm running
OUT… RUNNING OUT OF L-U-C-K AND
NOW… NOW IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME
BEFORE I'M PERMANENTLY STUCK
STUCK INSIDE THIS SKIN
I'm running out of this thing we call time
I never see but it's passing me by
Each waking hour each and every day
My reflection is slowly fading away
So if you see me and I'm lonely
Quarterless and my luck meter has expired
Make sure you tell me that you know
And that you knew me before my soul retired
I'm running out I'm running out I'm running
OUT… RUNNING OUT OF L-U-C-K AND
NOW… NOW THE CLOCK'S TICKING AND I'M RUNNING…
OUT… RUNNING OUT OF L-U-C-K AND
NOW… NOW IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME
BEFORE I'M PERMENENTLY STUCK
I'M STUCK INSIDE THIS SKIN
MOUTH
Damn this life confuses
It uses and abuses
With so many stupid games
I don't wanna play… ok
Where do I belong
Everywhere feels wrong
Things keep changing
It's a rearranging story
It's a mystery
How it missed me
THIS WAS MY DREAM MY WISH
AND IT DIDN'T COME TRUE
SO I'M TAKING IT BACK
I'M TAKING EM ALL BACK
Just wanna know I'm wanted
Just wanna know I'm needed
Just wanna know it's there
In case I ever need it
Everywhere I go
All the people blow
Trust in something
That only brings melancholy
Why should I just
Believe in…
CHORUS
Never never never say die
I'm not giving up
And I've been there
But you don't care
CHORUS
THE DRIVE
Dear God are you there
Well I hope you are
And I hope that you're listening cuz right now I gotta escape
From this world
From this place
From the hate
From the self-esteem rape
Yeah I gotta get away
Cuz things just ain't the same round here
Oh I gotta get away
Cuz things just are insane around here
I DON'T WANNA GO HOME TONIGHT
LET'S GET IN THE CAR
AND DRIVE REALLY FAR
I DON'T WANNA GO HOME TONIGHT
LET'S GET IN THE CAR
AND FORGET WHO WE ARE
TILL THEY FORGET ALL ABOUT US
Hey
My soul is on this tray
And all the words they say
They make me question why I'm even here
And the answer's so unclear
But the answer that I fear
It seems so real just as real as my tear
And I'll run away
I think about it
I think about it all the time
Running away
I think about it all of the time
CHORUS
Let's roll the windows down and play our song
Let's turn the radio up and sing along
Let's go somewhere, anywhere but here
Let's let the wheels roll and we'll just, we'll just steer
Don't take me
Please don't take me
Don't make me
Please don't make me go
Don't take me
Please don't take me home
