"Under My Skin" lyrics

Pain Of Truth & Criminal Instinct Lyrics

"Under My Skin"

Never shoulda trusted you, shoulda went with my gut
I saw the signs and felt it but you knew I cared too much
Something I knew was gonna fall apart
It's bottled up, about to crack, I've had enough
It sliced and starting to get under my skin
Where I found you's where I'll leave you, the end's where I begin (Fuck you)
Yeah, I feel better than I thought
It's a long time coming, I was born fed up

Now you're in my world

You're in the dark, there ain't no hope for you now
Only rules designed against you, chains by which you're bound
To something that you wish you could stop
You can't turn back the clock
You made your choice and now you're spiraling down

That's why I kept you at arm's length
Won't let you waste my strength
Like all the time we spent
I'm not looking to throw it all away
'Cause I gotta remember to never do this again
Moving pieces like you're playin' a board (Don't drag me down)
I'm not letting it get to my head (Don't drag me down)
Another stone unturned, when will I fucking learn?
Gotta think for myself

I'm not gonna let you drag me down
I've been there before
I've seen the dark and I'm not going back

You're in the dark, there ain't no hope for you now
Only rules designed against you, chains by which you're bound
To something that you wish you could stop
You can't turn back the clock
You made your choice and now you're spiraling down

Spiraling down
