Lyrics
Skin On Soul
Daddyīs gone and Mummyīs crying
She says, The Lordīs here heīs just hard to find
Must be working overtime,
So donīt you skip your prayers tonight now babe
Itīs a lonely fall when you fall so low
The curtains close on a one man show
Itīs a broken home and an open road
No matter where I stay it ainīt so hard for me to go
Chorus:
When the lights go down and the stars are few
Thereīs some open arms i can crawl into
Can I stick around and tell you stories Iīve been told
Til thereīs nothing left but Skin on my Soul
Thereīs got to be at least one last girl
Who understands a poets world
Itīs a hard black shell but she can see the pearl
And i can make it right if I can just find the words
But I always run so far away
My calloused hands on my guitar babe
These rusty strings Iīm gonna keep on playing
No matter where i go, it always hard for me to stay
Chorus:
When the lights go down and the stars are few
Thereīs some open arms i can crawl into
Can I stick around and tell you stories Iīve been told
Til thereīs nothing left but Skin on my Soul
Iīm tattooed and battered,
Iīm burned scarred and wandering every witch way I can go
Broken and weary
Itīs the same clothes iīm wearing, Itīs the same asking why in the road
Daddyīs gone and Mamaīs still crying
Somewhere the devils satisfied
He must be working overtime
So donīt you skip your prayers tonight
Donīt you skip your prayers tonight now babe
