Verse 1:
I know that I can be your exoskeleton,
I know that you're mean to me but I'll still be your friend.
And in this hard exterior, there's nothing left but sin,
but that's all right because I am an exoskeleton.
Pre-Chorus:
*strummed
D E
Yeah, it's okay yes it's okay
D E (half measure rest)
'cause in a hundred years no one will care... no one cares...

Verse 2:
Sometimes I don't mind when good people die,
and sometimes I don't fret when my mother cries.
I haven't seen an honest tear drop from honest eyes

ground. What difference does it make if we go now, if we wait oh no.

Verse 3:
And Inside my box of damaged goods
there lies a heart-shaped hole, an entrail made of wood.
And is it so wrong for me to feel so indifferent
or do we all feel the same under superficial skin.

*slow down till end on last bar and strum chord for close
I know that I can be your exoskeleton
I know that you're mean to me but I'll still be your friend.
