Under My Skin

Lines blurred the depths of impractical

All of your tactics have held me accountable

For not just the things that I did but the things you did

Endless, infinite fractal

Don’t know the things that I know that you lack

All of the sun and the clouds and the storms you hid

Thought that you could make me spin?

Thought that you could make me lost?

I know you thought you would win

But I’m alive

I can see the ghost within

Scarred and damaged, where’s it been?

I’m broken, shaken, take it in

‘Cause I’m alive under your skin.


Criss cross, through every cell in my

Shattered and battered and ripped apart dry mind

Labyrinth lullaby, here I come again

Escaped through cracks in your fingers I’m

Drowned again by the lock, “Once dry, reapply”

Sound of the nightingale in a cave screaming “Amen”

Nightmares, overgrown images

Spiral through golden and silver and crimson

Deepest wounds, there’s blood on my shoes and your hands

Can’t break through anything, all of this

Smallest, painful, shivering unrest

I’ll go until each path inside you ran

‘Cause I’m alive under your skin.
