Skin
DRMCTHR Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"You've got the sun in your eyes
And your skin tight jeans
And I can't stop thinking of your hands all over me"
But, you need room to grow and I need space to think
Can we forget it all?
Run away with me

Hey, we should leave
I'll do anything
Hey, stay with me
I won't let them find us

Drive away
We'll spend hours in the backseat
And no one will understand
What it means to me
They put that weight on you
And it's so easy to sink
Can you take it off?
Run away with me?

Hey, we should leave
I'll do anything
Hey, stay with me
I won't let them find us

Calm down
I'll even let you rip my heart out
If it would settle you down
All I want is to take your ring
All I want is everything
Calm down
I'll even let you turn my life inside out
If it would settle you down
All I want is to take your ring
All I want is everything

Hey, we should leave
I'll do anything




Hey, stay with me
I won't let them find us
