Kalmah Skin O My Teeth Lyrics

Skin O My Teeth Lyrics

[written by Dave Mustaine, originally performed by Megadeth]



I had
wrists donning slits

Flowing constantly

My broken body in a
wreck

Wrapped around a tree

A crosswalk hit and run

The
finish line for me

People clutter in the gutter

Take a look and
see



[CHORUS]

No escaping pain

You belong to me

Clinging on to life

By the skin o' my teeth



My blood
flows through the streets

Deluge from the wounds

Empty jars of
sleeping pills

On the dresser in my room

My wet brain neighbor
cranes

His neck to see in time

The white light's a train

Bearing down on me



[CHORUS]



I won't feel the
hurt

I'm not trash any longer

That that doesn't kill me

Only
makes me stronger

I need a ride to the morgue

That's what 911 is
for

So, tag my toe and don't forget

Ooh to close the drawer



[CHORUS]
