Skin Lyrics

I wish that I had a window

To breathe some life in your walls

But no one pushes the pins though

Before the masterpiece falls

And I wish that you weren't a scarecrow

Somebody that could evolve

Connection wouldn't be bare bones

And you could feel my resolve

But you just keep getting healthier

It's like you're shedding your skin

And I grow weak and grow heavier

With every delicate whim

And I wish that fatal attraction

It didn't clutch to your name

And that my overreaction

It wasn't always to blame

(But it is though right? Definitely absolutely)

And I wish that I would've saved you

From coming in like you did

With that idiot asshole

Who's treating you like a kid

Now I'm treating you like a kid

But you just keep getting healthier (Healthier)

It's like you're shedding your skin (It's like you're shedding your skin)

And I grow weak and grow heavier (Heavier)

With every delicate whim (With every delicate whim)

And I am an impulse personified (Personified)

I am a servant of sin (I am a servant of sin)

And you're a thought that's been petrified (Been Petrified)

So keep your skin keep it thin, keep it thin, keep it thin oh yeah

I thought I ought to be the cure but the truth is I was just a different kind of poison

You've not been taught to reassure but my loose lips never had an issue finding words to fit your joy in

Crews cruise in twos but if you lose what you don't use I'm going deaf and mute

Thought we were absolute and I was resolute but I was destitute feeling even less than you

I have the faintest awareness around the kind of unfairness that made you cut off your parents and left you feeling embarrassed (You found)

An heir to your heiress and off the carousel fell

I was clinging to the angel rising out of the ashes of my own personal hell

Help Help her not me

I'm just a toxic cosmic catastrophe

And due to all encompassed apathy we sever:

Emotional atrophy

Oh yeah you are gonna keep getting healthier baby

And I'm gonna I get heavier, I get heavier, I get heavier Oh

Oh ah yeah you just keep on getting healthier yeah oh

So keep your skin keep it thin

The hardest thing for me to do at any point was to be comfortable in mine and your skin
