Snakeskin Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I never felt comfortable in my skin
I never wrote down my next of kin
Kept all my troubles locked up inside me
And threw away the key
I've been to the locksmith to find my soul
I'm hoping it finds me before I'm old
I'll shake off my troubles and change my clothes
A new face for me

[Pre-Hook]
Gave it away, got lost one morning
Today is the day, just watch me born again

[Hook]
Lately, I'm shedding my snakeskin
You know I've been changing for you, lady
It's time to make a fresh start

It's time to make a

[Link]

Sickening to watch if only at the best times
Bleeding wouldn't stop, now it's been addressed, my
Snakeskin
And I hate him
And I hate him

[Verse 2]
I know that I'm twice the man I was
But half as excited now I'm not lost
I wanted to fly around the world
There was only space for me
I'm like a disciple, I'm focused now
I'm out of the cycle and won't look down
I'm out of the bubble and I've changed my clothes
A new place for me

Gave it away, got lost one morning
Today is the day, just watch me born again

[Pre-Hook]

[Hook x2]

And I hate him
And I hate him
And I hate him
And I hate him

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
