Skin - Lost

[Shirley*]

What was I waiting for
Waiting for the bubble to burst
Over your stagnant pauses

Can’t cure what your devil don’t see
Or light a fire below the death of me
We’ve shot through all over our causes

Days spin through my heart
That sever the love
Kill all the pain with shame

I won’t be lost without you
I’ve found a way to get through
Now I’m up and running
Strong enough to walk away
And leave you all alone
I won’t be lost

What were you waiting for
Waiting for the straw to break
Over the back of desperate ways

You were a dream to me
Now you’re nothing but a heart
that bleeds
I’ll wash you off and carry on




And when I see you
I find another reason
To keep myself from getting lost in you
