Lyrics
Tough skin above brittle bones
Tough exterior covers fragile inner structure.
Rest assured we can't mend these holes
Reassurance that the damage cannot be repaired.
Been too long for you
Addressing a significant passage of time.
Cauterize these wounds
Calling for a drastic measure to heal emotional wounds.
Perfect picture all these fakes
Observation of a superficially idealized world filled with fake elements.
Pretty paintings make no mistake
Emphasizing the deceptive nature of aesthetically pleasing creations.
Achieve the standard, the one's they set
Striving to meet societal standards that others have established.
Confused and used like the rest
Expressing confusion and a sense of being used, akin to others.
Mouth tastes like menthol
Suggesting a bitter or medicinal taste in the mouth, possibly symbolizing life's struggles.
Streets feel so plain
Describing a mundane and unremarkable environment.
Life's always a bad hand
Life is consistently challenging, like a continually dealt bad hand in cards.
Still you got to play
Encouragement to engage with life despite its difficulties.
One's too many and a hundreds not enough
Indicating the insufficiency of both small and large quantities in satisfying needs.
Let me feel behind, this indulgent touch
Seeking a deeper connection beyond surface-level experiences.
You've been tossed to the weeds
Being neglected or discarded, possibly in relationships or life situations.
You've become the want and the need
Becoming both a desire and a necessity for someone.
What's this feeling, beneath the skin
Exploring an indescribable emotion beneath the surface.
Open your door and let her in
Encouraging openness to a significant, possibly transformative, experience.
Mouth tastes like menthol
Reiteration of a bitter or medicinal taste in the mouth.
Streets feel so plain
Repetition of the mundane and unremarkable nature of the surroundings.
Life's always a bad hand
Reaffirming the consistent challenges in life.
Still you got to play
Encouragement to engage with life despite ongoing difficulties.
Story's spun
Introduction of a narrative element, possibly indicating a tale or personal story.
Left to come undone
Suggesting that the story is unraveling or falling apart.
Story's spun
Repetition of the idea that the story is coming apart.
Coming undone
Further emphasis on the unraveling or deterioration of the story.
