verse 1
D
D C
If I could crawl into a shell

Then I would a mile away

And I really do think that's

The best that I can do

Stuck here and all
And I really do think that
C
Don't care at all
D C
Take a step forwards
Don't be afraid
D
Take a step backwards
C D
Don't be afraid
D
So go on
C
So look back

Stuck inside a heavy shell

Try to walk and not be pushed

And the man with no skin

Or a brain

Used to get so wrapped up

Like I've been betrayed

This world let me down
C
In a big way
D
Now I feel like a dog maimed
C
Picking at fleas
Picking at fleas
G A A4
And the man with no skin
D Dsus2 G
I would not let him in
G A D Dsus2 G
Would not let him sign off
G A A4
'Cause nobody wants to see

A beating heart

Or a lung
A A4
Or a brain
D

It's hard to walk
C
With broken legs

It gets hard to breathe

It's hard to love the world

Without a heart

What else should I cut out?
C
Where do I start?

And the man with no skin

G A A4 D
And maybe get some longer and mask(?)
