Shiny Skin

(album: A Very P86 Christmas - 2015)

I shut my eyes in attempts to try to sleep
Knowing that it's impossible
The restlessness that grips me like a tomb
Pushes me toward tomorrow

Cause nothing ever can satisfy me like you

Tear right through
This shiny skin
Cause it's a pressure that you cannot escape
Tear right through
And try to fill
Pretend the emptiness won't still remain

The countless images taunt me
With promises of surrender
What will tomorrow present me with
With a distraction from who provided it

Cause nothing ever can satisfy me like you

Tear right through
This shiny skin
Cause it's a pressure that you cannot escape
Tear right through
And try to fill
Pretend the emptiness won't still remain

Inside that box is a gift
That we will soon forget
It's not that we want what's inside of it
We just wanted to open it (open it)
(Open it, open it)

Cause nothing ever can satisfy me like you

Tear right through
This shiny skin
Cause it's a pressure that you cannot escape
Tear right through
And try to fill
Pretend the emptiness won't still remain

Tear right through
This shiny skin
Cause it's a pressure that you cannot escape
Tear right through
And try to fill
Pretend the emptiness won't still remain
