Newton Faulkner - Write It On Your Skin - Live in Lerwick

"Write it on your skin" lyrics worked out by    / mallan824  

Take everything you know and write it on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything,
Take everything you own, and put it in your car,
You can drive away, drive away so far,
Drive down to a lake and take off all your clothes,
Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone,
Cause you've got all you know, written on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything, forget everything,

I try to give it some time,
Quit trying to make some sense of this,
Least I can say I put up a good fight,
Guess I'm a lousy pacifist,
I try to take it in my stride,
My life will not amount to this,
If I bought a ticket for this ride I'd like a refund.

Take everything you know and write it on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything,
Take everything you own, and put it in your car,
You can drive away, drive away so far,
Drive down to a lake and take off all your clothes,
Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone,
But you've got all you know, written on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything, forget everything,

I try to give it some time,
Quit trying to make some sense of this,
Least I can say I put up a good fight,
Guess I'm a lousy pacifist,
I try to take it in my stride,
My life will not amount to this,
If I bought a ticket for this ride I'd like a refund.

Take everything you know and write it on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything,
Take everything you own, and put it in your car,
You can drive away, drive away so far,
Drive down to a lake and take off all your clothes,
Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone,
But you've got all you know, written on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything, forget everything,


Life's just like a music box,
We spin around, we can't get out

Take everything you know and write it on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything,
Take everything you own, and put it in your car,
You can drive away, drive away so far,
Drive down to a lake and take off all your clothes,
Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone,
But you've got all you know, written on your skin,
You can carry on, forget everything, forget everything
