Nelson Gatlin - Skinned Knees Lyrics

I've been talking about myself
I can't talk about much else
And it feels good, your love
Leaves me wanting more
I'm dreaming of moving somewhere else

We're all talking about the time
That night I lost my mind
Drinking too fast
I broke my favorite shot glass
Please stop telling lies
That night I got too high
And wanted to end my own life

Will I ever learn?
Don't worry about me

It's time to put the book back on the shelf
It's about time I ask for help
You've got your family
I've got skinned knees
It's time I left and didn't come home

But you know I won't

It's time I saw someone else
I'm sick of writing about myself
Feeling so cold
All the warmth Miami stole
There's someone who thinks I'm great
I drowned her in Montego Bay

The last thing I deserve is someone new
Feeling alone is sacred and all I know
Starving for comfort never ends
Though I'm in love with all my friends
I'm in love with all my friends

Please help me to breath
Or leave me here to drown

You were everything to me
