"Soft But Dead / King Of Skin" lyrics

The days stack on top of one another
I bet I act just like my mother did when she was my age
Does she dream of a boy crushed by a great big machine?
Are you as comfortable as me?
Wish you could see me when I sing
Your praise to all my friends
Do you even see me at all?
Were your lies as comfortable?

I'm not trying to hide too many parts of myself
But there it goes again
I'm not trying to hide too many parts of myself
But there it goes again
I'm not trying to hide too many parts of myself
But there it goes again

My hands are falling off the steering wheel
My face has lost all of its appeal
I see so much of her that's still in you
Are there parts of me that's still untrue?
Working on my not worrying (Wish you could see me when I sing)
But I guess it goes again
Do you still know me after all these years? (Your praise to all my friends)
Would you still believe me in facing all my fears?
Do you still know who I am
Do you still think of me as the same person?

I'm not trying to hide too many parts of myself
But there it goes again
I'm not trying to hide too many parts of myself
But there it goes again
I'm not trying to hide too many parts of myself
But there it goes again

I know a woman who once said
"The only people who don't change are dead"

And I'm not ready to bury you yet
