Skin
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
