lyrics

I don’t want to be cut open
My skin is not scalpel ready
Are you more of a man
When you know that you can
But I don’t want to be cut open

I don’t want to be cut open
Would you take a knife to origami
And if paper could right itself
In time I might
'Till then I don’t want to be cut open

I won’t fight myself again
I won’t take away my only friend
I won’t fight myself away

But the caption is full
And it’s nearing the end

I don’t want to be cut open
My skin is not shrapnel empty
Though you might think that you see what you will
You may have many spaces to fill
Maybe take the knife to your heart instead
Extract the mess
Leave that old friend back where you had left
