Take everything you know and write it on your skin
Then you can carry on and forget everything
Take everything you own and put it in your car
You can drive away, drive away so far
Then drive into a lake and take off all your clothes
Set your clothes on fire, now you are alone
But you've got all you know written on your skin
So you can carry on and forget everything
