"Under My Skin" lyrics

"Under My Skin"

I threw your jumper in the wash and I hoped you'd wash away
I let myself hurt every day and I hoped you'd bleed the same
I tried to forget all this, I tried to get some help
But I can't run away from you 'cause I see you in myself

You're still under my skin
I wish I never let you in
You're still running through my mind
I wish the clocks could rewind
You're still under my skin
I wish I never let you in
And I make myself feel sick
'Cause you're still my only wish

I threw your things in the bin and hoped you'd rot away
I tried to think of someone else, but it didn't feel the same
I wandered and I wondered why I still see you everywhere
In the buildings, in the streets, now I can't be anywhere

You're still under my skin
I wish I never let you in
You're still running through my mind
I wish the clocks could rewind
You're still under my skin
I wish I never let you in
And I make myself feel sick
'Cause you're still my only wish

You're still under my skin
I wish I never let you in
You're still running through my mind
I wish the clocks could rewind
You're still under my skin
I wish I never let you in
And I make myself feel sick
'Cause you're still my only wish
