Scab

(álbum: Ghost With Skin - 2021)

Baby, do you think that I'm a glutton?
Baby, do you see me as a bastard?
Hate it how you make me feel gutted
Baby got me praying for the rapture
Baby got me sipping out the bottle
Up all night and smelling like sulfur
Gas, no brakes, full throttle
Baby, yeah, you know I gotta suffer
Wake up in the morning and my lungs hurt
Up for two or three days, I been going off the uppers
Putting you in harms way when I turn into a monster
Know that you're ashamed, take a number
I know I can be a real bummer
Baby, all of my life I've been slipping to the gutter
How we gonna make it right? Are we right for each other?
This might be the last supper
I don't want you wasting away, why you stay with me for?
Why you gotta play with pain, gotta find a new sport
Know I gotta find a way, yeah, baby, yeah you know I gotta find that cure
Oh tell me how much that you'll take of me, yeah
Tell me how you'll endure

Are you leaving tonight?
You gonna tell me or what?
And I plead you to try
I've been down on my luck
And I'll be back in your life
Girl at the drop of a knife
And I'm a magnet for spite
I don't want you saying that I'm wasting your time

Hard to find the courage just to muster it up
Body looking like a crusher, I got rucks in my gut
Know I never tell you baby, tell you enough
You're the only thing that's saving me from crossing over to the other side
Will you be there on the other side?
No need to be scared, we can share the ride, baby
Look into my eyes, know you're terrified, baby
Can we make it through the night, are we really worth saving?
This is what you asked for
Baby, this is everything you asked for
I know that I'm a bastard
But baby, I can make your life faster
You know your loves a weapon
Yeah, you found me at the pit and I stepped in
That's not easy to forget, how I wrecked it
No, I never meant to make you feel less than (Ooh)

Are you leaving tonight?
You gonna tell me or what?
And I plead you to try
I've been down on my luck
And I'll be back in your life
Girl at the drop of a knife
And I'm a magnet for spite
I don't want you saying that I'm wasting your time

I'm your cloud no matter the weather
You feel down baby, I can make it better
I'm not around right now but I'll be there in a minute
Baby, just don't quit on me
Won't save my sleep
Let's make believe that we're just dreaming
Baby, I can tell when we first met
That you were in denial, baby, you're cynic
But I can see the light shine through your grimace
Never thought you'd drive me to the clinic
Baby, I'm stuck in Sin City
Tryna get me hooked, why so fishy?
Might run off, might go missing
No lights on, going 150
Baby, the tides, they've been shifting (Tides been shifting)
Everything you gave to my life missing
Hard to read the signs, life's been cryptic (Life's been cryptic)
Don't know if I can fix it (Ooh)

Are you leaving tonight?
You gonna tell me or what?
And I plead you to try
I've been down on my luck
And I'll be back in your life
Girl at the drop of a knife
And I'm a magnet for spite
I don't want you saying that I'm wasting your time
