Every itch demands a scratch
Every scratch breaks my skin
Leaves a gaping wound within
Tears swell from broken skin
Only steroids can calm
The cytokine storm within
And tie invisible threads
In a final stitch to save my skin
Eczema isn\'t a disease or infection
It\'s a chronic affliction
They say \"No pain No gain\"
I say \"All pain is in vain\"
The complex cause will startle you
When your body resolves to destroy you
Life\'s reduced to an indomitable rash
