Shedding Skin
by Caleb

Album: Waking Up - EP

I thought this was love.
Going to sleep with you and waking up in the same arms.
Showering with you Getting dressed with you
Going to work with you coming home with you
Making love to you.
And that's how I knew it was fake for the simple fact that it had to be made.
Man we've been together since birth
And yet there is nothing else on this earth I want to part with more.
It's like a jacket that has become too small
Sucking the air out of me because I can't breath
I know for sure that I don't hate you but I sure don't love you
And the sad fact of it all is that you are me.
Snakes shed skin when they find that they have out grown it
So tonight I will do the same.
Peal of the child so I can reveal the man
Flaunting my growth as if it were a first place metal.
And you whisper in my ear
Can you feel it?
What?
The dawning of a new day
And I can
That's why I'm shedding my old to boldly reveal my new.
