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.
