Skin Lyrics

Spock's Beard

Like a star with a blue moon rising
You complain but you keep surprising yourself
Like a dog who's been kicked all over
You tried to quit but you can't stop kicking yourself
It's the truth - it's a lie - love will never die
Don't you see it's like tryin' to climb out of your skin
You're like a butterfly fighting the wind
Don't you see it's like tryin' to climb out of your skin
You shut down tried to not be special
Lights were off but someone's always been home
May as well not resist temptation
Plug yourself in the wall and light up the town
Time is up - it's alive - take this dream and drive
CHORUS
Climb way up to the ground
Slide on up and slide down
It's the truth - it's a lie - love will never die
It's the best you can buy - might be worth a try
Make a wish take a dive - don't just stay alive
You'll do more than survive - take this dream and drive
CHORUS
