Taken from the 1997 album Chosen to be Frozen

lyrics

Your skin, so fresh, so free from blame
So soft, so pure, I feel ashamed
When it transfixes me again
You know i have to stay

My aching bones, my limbs of clay
My eyes feel sore, my brain feels greay
But you can keep the pain at bay
And that's all I can ask for

Kiss my aching bones again
Each twisted muscle, every sprain
Kisses take away the pain
If only for a moment

Have I been alive too long
Or am I just doing it all wrong?
Could I feel as if I belong
And would I like it if I did?

I don't know how I got this way
But you can keep the ache away
You can make me feel okay
And that's all I can ask for
That's all I can ask for

Your skin keeps my decay at bay
Your skin keeps my decay at bay

Your skin keeps my decay at bay
And that's all I can ask for
Your skin keeps my decay at bay
And that's all I can ask for
