I had wrists donning slits
Flowing constantly
My broken body in a wreck
Wrapped around a treeA crosswalk hit and run
The finish line for me
When people clutter in the gutter
Take a look and seeNo escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teethNo escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teethMy blood flows through the streets
Deluge from the wounds
Empty jars of sleeping pills
On the dresser in my roomMy wet brain neighbor cranes
His neck to see in time
The white light's a train
Bearing down on meNo escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teethNo escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teethI won't feel the hurt
I'm not trash any longer
That that doesn't kill me
Only makes me strongerI need a ride to the morgue
That's what 911 is for
Tag my toe and don't forget
Ooh, to close the drawerNo escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teethNo escaping pain
You belong to me
Clinging on to life
By the skin of my teeth
