The Golden Palominos - No Skin lyrics

No thought, no breath, no eyes, no heart Everyone I see is missing something Everyone I see is missing something This dark and secret crime Cruelty masked as something kind Sharp against the tenderness Cold against the emptiness Everyone I see is missing something Everyone I see is missing something Split open to the wound Send another saviour soon Eyes closed, torn apart Body separate from the heart You wouldn't notice I have no skin You wouldn't notice I have no skin Held down on the bed This is what I think he said The face of Jesus hung above I will teach you how to love You wouldn't notice I have no skin You wouldn't notice I have no skin And I can find you anywhere Even if you run from there Eyes closed, torn apart Body separate from the heart Everyone I see is missing something Everyone I see is missing something Balance reaches beyond itself to lay hold of intelligence So that it's satisfactions brought to the surface of consciousness May become profounder more intense and more compelling Violent, we take a step away from awareness And by striving to grasp the significance of our own violent impulses We move further away from the frenzied raptures violence instigates Everyone I see is missing something Everyone I see is missing something Burned with a cigarette Some things you don't forget Well trained in going numb Well prepared for what's to come You wouldn't notice I have no skin You wouldn't notice I have no skin No thought, no breath, no eyes, no heart In order to reach the limits of the ecstasy in which we lose ourselves in bliss You must set an immediate boundary Pain can carry me nearer to the moment Bring me to a state of bliss bordering on delerium No thought, no breath, no eyes, no heart And I can find you anywhere Even if you run from there Eyes closed, torn apart Body separate from the heart You wouldn't notice I have no skin You wouldn't notice I have no skin
