Lyrics
I reserve myself the right to protect, I
I assert my right to defend myself
From intentions around
Against questionable motives around me
I see a thousand faces
I perceive numerous faces
In no one but myself I trust
I trust no one but myself
I don't get love or care from this world of pain
I don't receive love or care in this painful world
Made my skin turn to stone
Adversity has hardened me emotionally
Bending under this load, I fall
Struggling under burdens, I succumb
And my skin is
My skin is...
My fall accelerates with the weight
My descent quickens under the weight
Soon I'll be underworld
I am approaching the underworld or a dark place
Surviving radiations, not for long
Surviving harmful influences but not for long
And I'm burning
I am experiencing intense emotional pain
Raging storm deep inside
An inner turmoil rages violently
Unsuspected misery
An unexpected and profound sense of suffering
Someone has betrayed my trust
Someone has violated my trust
Attempted suicide
An attempt at self-destruction
My nerves tensed, hardened my skin becomes
My nerves are tense, my skin toughens
But I give my horse its head, I'll overcome
Despite challenges, I will overcome
Come, meet
Come and encounter...
Under my lizard skin
Under my tough exterior or emotional defenses
I research the way to cleave through the air
I seek a way to navigate through difficulties
My attention span is too short
My focus is limited
My envelope is too tight not
My constraints are constricting
And my skin is
And my skin is...
