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
