If I could crawl into a shell
Then I wouldn’t mind the weight
Things are heavy enough already
And I hate to think that
The best that I can do is not care at all
And I hate to think that
I don’t care at all
Take a step forwards
Don’t be afraid
Take a step backwards
Don’t be afraid
So go on, so look back
Stuck inside a heavy shell
Try to walk and not be pushed

And the man with no skin
They would not let him in
Would not let him sign up
Because nobody wants to see
A beating heart, or a lung, or a brain
(Hey hey)

Used to get so caught up
Used to get all wrapped up
Now I find myself feeling
Disillusioned and emotionless
Like I’ve been betrayed
This world let me down
In a big way
Now I feel like a dumb ape
Picking at fleas, picking at fleas

And the man with no skin
They would not let him in
Would not let him sign up
Because nobody wants to see a
Beating heart, or a lung, or a brain

It’s hard to walk with broken legs
It gets hard to breathe without lungs
It’s hard to love the world
Without a heart
What else should I cut out?
Where do I start?

And the man with no skin
They would not let him in
Would not let him sign up
Because nobody wants to see a
Beating heart, or a lung, or a brain
It’s time to grow a second skin
To keep the insides in
Because this one is obviously
Not thick enough
It’s time to grow a second skin
To keep the insides in
Or maybe get some armour
And a mask
Or maybe get some armour
And a mask
