atmospheric piano and autoharp combined with screeching and theremin noise. illustrating how from the outside most families will seem carefree and happy, but underneath we all have our own demons to deal with. "skin" is a love-letter to every person who dreaded the holidays and feeling alone in that experience.
lyrics
counting the hours to sleep
watch how the heat dissolves
raising the hairs on my skin
feel how the void evolves
counting the minutes to sleep
how can I leave it all, leave it all now
darling, I’m shivering
my legs are quivering
oh, give me a reason to come home
(will it be different this time?)
time takes its toll
(will it be different this time?)
craving the warmth from inside
how can I stop myself
from pushing the state of my mind
when you can’t even
give me a reason to come home?
(will it be different this time?)
time takes its toll
(will it be different this time?)
will it be different this time?
will it be different this time?
will it be different this time?
will it be different this time?
counting the seconds to sleep
watch how the heat dissolves
raising the hairs on my skin
feel how the void evolves
