Wearing the Inside Out
chords by Karl Magnacca
>From morning to night I stayed out of sight
Didn't recognize I'd become
No more than alive I'd barely survive
In a word...overrun
Won't hear a sound from my mouth
I've spent too long on the inside out
My skin is cold to the human touch
This bleeding heart's not beating much
I murmured a vow of silence and now
I don't even hear when I think aloud
Extinguished by light I turn on the night
Wear its darkness with an empty smile
I'm creeping back to life
My nervous system all awry
I'm wearing the inside out
Look at him now, he's paler somehow
But he's coming around
He's starting to choke, it's been so long since he spoke
Well he can have the words right from my mouth
And with these words I can see
Clear through the clouds that covered me
Just give it time then speak my name
Now we can hear ourselves again
I'm holding out for the day
When all these clouds have blown away
I'm with you now, can speak your name
Now we can hear ourselves again

I forgot what to say." | Condition grounded, but determined to try."
