Cover My Skin

One butterfly flaps its wings
Now I'm stuck in deep of a mafia scheme
If I stepped inside of a time machine
And I go to the day that I turned 13

I'd slap his face knock sense in me
Get a baseball bat and I'd break his knees
Pull an Al Capone and I'd make him bleed
Don't come between my family

The one time that I let this go
My brakes gave and I lost control
One excuse is a slippery slope
That is letting loose every domino

It's been so long that if I cut this off then I'd lose my head so I just keep it in
It's been too long now if I cut this out then I'd end up dead so I just cover my skin

One domino falls like a leaf
Now I'm on a throne and they call me king
Not yet broke but I'm on the brink
I need time alone so that I can think

My kingdom come is history
Worm Tongue in my ear and he's whispering
It all begun as a little thing
And now I feel my body blistering

The calyces are setting in
My flesh has turned to sediment
No blade can ever touch my skin
Rohan's mine, that's the end of it

I dug the roots to my brain and nerves
These hands ain't mine they were taken first
They grab the wheel change the lane and swerve
I'm here for the ride. Don't say a word

The one time that I let this go
My brakes gave and I lost control
One excuse is a slippery slope
That is letting lose every domino

It's been so long that if I cut this off then I'd lose my head so I just keep it in
It's been too long now if I cut this out then I'd end up dead so I just cover my skin
It's been so long that if I cut this off then I'd lose my head so I just keep it in
It's been too long now if I cut this out then I'd end up dead so I just cover my skin
