Inch by inch you study my skin
And everything else within
How far do you have to go
To dig up everything that I've held in

You know me better than the rest
If, you say so yourself
I was almost perfect when you started to cut
But now you're frightened of the mess

Every line tells a story
And you're hungry for more
It's no longer in my control
To hide the marks that I bore

But do the tales count
When you don't know the emotions behind them
Just when you start to figure me out
You find a new loose end

You start to like me more and more
As you unravel me, piece by piece
But you can't revive me -
For a moment you almost felt omnipotent
But at the end, you're just Dr. Autopsy
