Outside My Skin
Do you think I’ll ever be
able to smile again
(I just don’t know)
I’m losing it all within
(To where do I go)
When I’m out of my skin
I was breathing this morning
Red bricks, green leaves
I showered and mourned
All my dreams away
I’m happily fading
Don’t you wish you were here
This morning I rose
My toes next to yours
I’m peacefully falling
In and out of doubt
Cassettes and feathered weights
I grabbled and crawled
Within your daunting walls
I’m my corner I’m daunting
Yes dear, I’m subtly yours
Closed my curtains this evening
And you kissed my doors
I was breathing this morning
Red bricks, green leaves
I happily fading
Don’t you wish you were here
I’m peacefully falling
I’m losing it all
Do you think I’ll ever be
able to smile again
(I just don’t know)
I’m losing it all within
(To where do I go)
When I’m out of my skin
