My thick skin is slowly peeling
You can almost see my soul
How can I expect to heal
You have left me so exposed
Torn because I need you
Worn down 'cause I can't free you
I, I'm in the depth of your despair
I, I fear your empty stare
Don't deny 'cause you know that when I'm gone
Ruin is the road you'll be on
The simple times have all been taken
Replaced by bitterness and shame
You keep shaken' you're achin' and breaking down
Will it ever be the same
Now I know you need me
Why am I at your mercy
I can't stop you
What else can I do
