i can drift to sad places

i can put on old faces

i can get into this skin

as i peel away the time

i can feel the mad traces

i can warm the cold spaces

i can get into this skin

because all of this was mine

i can run those old races

i can shun those bold chases

i can get into this skin

and sometimes that's just fine

i can relive furious paces

i can feed it falling graceless

i can get into this skin

i can take this long, long, long, long lonely line

For Fun
