Brand New Skin Year: 2008 | Run Time: 3:59

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI)

mother i remember you
all ringed with roses and laurel
thanks for teaching me those words
i couldn't save you from your sorrow

oh please close your eyes and wait to begin
you'll wake up in your brand new skin

show me out some different way
slide through that tomorrow
if it vanishes like haze
your old life it's just borrowed

oh to close your eyes and wait to begin
you'll wake up in your brand new skin

now whatever falls away
whatever is dross
whatever fills the grave
whatever gets lost

hold it all up to the light
when it's all wrecked and scarred
all that chrome touch-up paint
well it won't take you far
