Skin
Shame, shame on you
I watch you spit on your mother’s grave
Shaved, shave there too
Where you came from your mother

In life, lies lay on the side of fools
To wear the skin of a foal

A newborn blood
A newborn truth
Who could blend into summer's fall
Back out in winter's wall

Skin
What you wear
Is a foal
Is a half bare

Skin
Is a life
As in sin
Is a half lie

Skin
Who you dare
To see fall
To see nowhere
Skin
Press the knife
Make a wish
Meet me halfway there

Meet me halfway there
Meet me halfway there
Meet me halfway there
Meet me halfway
When I fall out of this life
I fall in, into skin

Skin
What you wear
Is a foal
Is a half bare

Skin
Is a life
As in sin
Is a half lie

Skin
Who you dare
To see fall
To see nowhere
Skin
Press the knife
Make a wish
Meet me halfway there
