10 Naked Now

Here I stand before you now
my heart in bare wide open please inspect me
reach right in
Passageways and arteries
bloody cells shot up with pain in my viens
it dulls my brains

I’m naked, I’m naked now for all the world to see look at me
I’m naked, I’m naked now for all the world to see look at me

Here I stand before you now
wearing only mental baggage in my hands
shake my hand
Filled with fragments of my past
roses, pictures, angels, broken bones
I can’t mend alone

Repeat Chorus

Here I run before you now
running only in one place I’m froze by fear
scared to tears
My skin so thin my hair so long
it covers up the most of me I’m nude
I look just like food

Repeat Chorus

Now I give you what I’m not
pain and passion, pleasure and scars
those beautiful scars
Take me naked, take me whole
I wanna come into your soul exposed
very exposed

Repeat Chorus
