[Verse 1] He woke up blue Like a bruise on a barroom wall Looked in the mirror Said, "What the hell is this, y'all?" He hit the floor Still half in a dream Raked through his hands But that blue wouldn't leave [Pre-Chorus] He said, "I don't know why" With a wild look in his eyes Grabbed his keys and tore out Straight into the flashing lights [Chorus] Blue skin, bad start, what did I do? Something's wrong with me Blue skin, hard beat, head full of noise Am I losing the seams? Blue skin, tell me true This can't be my blood It was the sheets, dyed through [Verse 2] The doctor leaned in At the stain on the bed Pulled the whole damn answer Out from under his head Cheap dye in the cloth Left a print on his face One rough night on a sheet Turned the whole thing into a case [Pre-Chorus] He laughed, then he coughed At the stupid display All that fear for a stain From a busted-up night away [Chorus] Blue skin, bad start, what did I do? Something's wrong with me Blue skin, hard beat, head full of noise Am I losing the seams? Blue skin, tell me true This can't be my blood It was the sheets, dyed through [Bridge] Check the pillow Check the seam Before you kick the door in Before you scream One cheap bed Can start a riot Then morning hits And it all goes quiet [Final Chorus] Blue skin, now I see It was never me Blue skin, damn right, I'm free Just a stupid mystery Blue skin, case closed, brand new This isn't my blood It was the sheets, dyed through (Blue skin) (It was the bed) (Blue skin) (Just the bed)
