Out of skin

by Iola   May 27, 2008


Tear it off and let me out
So that I can leave for good
Don't hold me back as I'm about
To finally leave this neighborhood

Unzip this jacket that suffocates
Throw my skin up in the air
Stop patronizing me before it's too late
As you will find that I'm no longer there

Release my soul for I'm leaving tonight
My mind resounding in a place of my own
Trying to find me will just start a fight
You need to forget and leave me alone

Spit out the taste that I have left in your mouth
Turn your face from what you believed
I'm on a roll and I am not heading south
No longer the person that you wanted to lead

Leave my arm because you are just scarring it
No longer can you keep me around you
Remove your hand from my heart; you are barring it
I need to go and find what I believe to be true
