SKIN
Where do you live?
Under your skin.
Safe where you are
Soft whisper-warm.
until you find
Your heart confined.
Here I am
This is me
Dreamers find what
Eyes can't see.
Stretch up, reach far
Far past your bounds.
Your home will tear
Fall to the ground
Naked and raw
Show all your flaws.
Here I am
This is me
Dreamers want what
They can't see.
Shivering cold
Out in the dark.
Lights call you on
Promise you warmth.
Blind and searching
Fearing, losing.
Here I am
This is me
Dreamers touch but
They won't see.
My
Skin
Will not hold me
So
I
Cling to yours but
You
Can't
Hold me up for
Ever
I
Fall back in my
Bones
Stripped down bare
Alone.
Here I am...(x3)
I will be brave
Live where I am
This skin I've had
Since I was born
No point learning
How to survive.
Just one true thing
I am alive.
