lyrics

I was born with skin that let the world in / so in came sorrow, so in came sin / wore down my wonder, wore it thin / so I curved myself in, glued my knees to my chin / thinned my belly, closed the door / pressed my forehead to the floor / but everything was pretty much the same as the day before / so I pulled myself up / I grew taut and tough / flung my fists and fought to win / wrung my wrists and broke my skin / I spat and swore / but everything was pretty much the same as the day before / so I filled myself out / I grew strong and stout / wore down my days / wore them down, smooth and round / and swallowed them whole / yeah I took control / and wanted more / but everything was pretty much the same as the day before / so I grew skin won’t let anything in / no sorrow / no sin / no wonder to wear thin.
