skin deep

(album: occam's razor - 2017)

I've been hanging out of my window 'cause I need air to breath
And I need stars to see whatever's left of me
And I can't even close my eyes, they won't let me go to sleep
But all of this is just skin deep, it brings the worst out of me
And you can see it in my face, it's been a while
I don't have the strength to smile
I've been hanging out of my window 'cause I need air to breath
And I need stars to see whatever's left of me
And I can't even close my eyes, they won't let me go to sleep
But all of this is just skin deep, it brings the worst out of me

I paint myself in shades of gray that no one else can see
A flicker of the light is all it takes to just believe
We're just an unread message, I guess I learned my lesson
Relic of my depression, lost in my adolescence
And I've been waiting so long to see the day
To close my eyes and let it fade away

I've been hanging out of my window 'cause I need air to breath
And I need stars to see whatever's left of me
And I can't even close my eyes, they won't let me go to sleep
But all of this is just skin deep, it brings the worst out of me
