Skin

Alessi Rose

I used to think by now I'd feel more in control
There's things I thought I'd grow into, I still don't know
And I can feel so lonely in a crowded room
And I'll stay here starts to sound a lot like I love you

And good things have to end, I guess
The credits roll, I'm sad again
Do I know who I am if when it stops I'm lost?

Ah-ah
Think I'm back in the emptiness
Wearing somebody else's skin
So I try to be whatever you desire
Now they're turning on all the lights
Who am I without a disguise?
I look at me and don't even recognize her

Oh-oh, oh-oh
(Can't describe her)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
(I don't recognize her)
(Recognize her)
(Recognize her)

And every year I age, I feel like sand slips through (ah-ah) my fingers
And you'll notice all the nails are chewed
I love all of my friends, I hope they love me back
But I've not been myself, I think they notice that

And the darkness never lasts I guess
But can't help feeling sad again
Is anybody listening when I scream out?

Think I'm back in the emptiness
Wearing somebody else's skin
So I try to be whatever you desire
Now they're turning on all the lights
Who am I without a disguise?
I look at me and don't even recognize her

Oh-oh, oh-oh
(Oh, I can't describe her, can't describe her)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
(I don't recognize her)

Feel my skin to prove
That its real and I'm still myself
But in the mirror, in the bathroom
I don't recognize her
What's left to lose if I don't even know myself?
But in the mirror, in the bathroom
I don't recognize her

I don't recognize her
I don't recognize her
