I've thought about it a million timesIt takes all my strength just to keep it calmI hove to tell myself, just let it breatheholding it inside will only help to do me inEach time I close my eyes I see another chainit's one I can't forget, something I can not break out ofI need a second skin, something to hold me upcan't seem to get out of this holeI've dug myself right back inJust to wake up tells me I must be braveIt hits me like a drug shot into my veinIt's not as delightful of a painimmobilizing mealmost makes me think I'm deadI need a second skinsomething to hold me toughCan't do it on my ownsometimes I need just a little more helpI want that chance to give every drop that's left in meI need a second skinsomething I can not break out ofI tell myself, just let it breatheIt's a calmness I'm always searching forBut the dirt it gets so heavyit falls above my headseeping from under my feetit just keeps on getting deeperI need a second skinsomething to hold me toughCan't do it on my ownsometimes I need just a little more helpI've got that chance to give every drop that's left in meI need a second skinsomething I cannot break free ofThough no one ever said it'd be easyStill one's left to deny the choice that comesbetween your willingness to surviveThough you're knowing what you stand up againsta world set to deceiveYou need a special strengthI've got that second skinI've got that chance to giveI've got the only way that I know how to live with itI need a second skinsomething to hold me toughI need a second skinsomething I cannot break out of
