Skin Game

One afterthought on a skin game I took it as prescribed Vow do no harm, buy the cure But first you'll buy the disease I can see you've had some struggles lately Hey man, I've had mine too Fighting to get through the door But I can't live like this anymore They gave us wings to fly But then they took away the sky Well, what you want? "Serve me" Sell me to the spoon I'm cashing in, falling out Tear me down, hang me up Strung out to please the king In metropolitan's sackler wing I can help you It's how I help myself I can see you've had some struggles lately Hey man, I've had mine too Fighting to get through the door But I can't live like this anymore They gave us wings to fly But then they took away the sky I wanna be your doll But I won't be your dog anymore You gave us wings to fly But then you took away the sky Sunken ceiling and a sideways grin We live to use and we use to live Crack a window Get some life in you Holding in coughs, hiding my head Everybody respects the dead I can help you It's how I help myself Sunken ceiling and a sideways grin We live to use and we use to live Crack a window Get some life in me
