Skin
BlakLight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can open up your mind
And I
And I will never know what to say
We can watch it grow
We can leave the past behind
And I
When the skin will tear
And the bruise will show on you
I'll be there for you
If you want me to
When the skin will tear
And the bruise will show on you
I'll be there for you
If you want me to
You can let me in
You can undo what you've heard
And I
And I could take the anguish away
We can start within
We can speak without a word
And I
And I might break the silence someday
When the skin will tear
And the bruise will show on you
I'll be there for you
If you want me to
When the skin will tear
And the bruise will show on you
I'll be there for you
If you want me to
If this is the start of
Something more
Then let's begin
If this is the start of
Nothing more
We won't give in
When the skin will tear
And the bruise will show on you
I'll be there for you
If you want me to
When the skin will tear
And the bruise will show on you
I'll be there for you
If you want me to
