Skin
Grimes/Musicfire.in Lyrics

Soft skin you touch me within
Your gentle touch makes me feel human again

And so I know I can be human once again
Your touch reassures me that I can feel emotions and be myself again

I know you're faced with something That could consume you completely
I understand that you have something going on that is overwhelming and taking up all your attention

Soft skin you touch me once again And somehow it stings 'cause I know it is the end
Your touch hurts because I know this is the last time we will experience it together

I hate that you're leaving So why don't you talk to me?
I don't want you to go, so please tell me what is going on and why you are leaving

You act like nothing ever happened But it meant the world to me
You seem unaffected by our relationship ending, but it was very important to me and has had a huge impact

And you can't, and you can't See the weight in the trees And you can't, and you can't See the weight of the leaves And you can't, and you can't See the weight on my heart And you can't, and you can't See the weight on the heart And you can't, and you can't
You are unable to see the burden that I carry both physically and emotionally

(These are our) And you can't, and you can't See the weight of the leaves And you can't, and you can't See the weight on my heart And you can't, and you can't (these are our falling secrets)
These are the secrets and the weight that we share together, and you are still unable to see and understand them

Soft skin I'll have you be near my heart Until I feel human Soft skin, oh You were never in love to begin with So now I'm suffering
I want you to stay close to me until I am able to feel like myself again. But now I feel hurt and alone since it seems like you were never truly in love with me

And you can't, and you can't See the weight in the trees And you can't, and you can't See the weight of the leaves And you can't, and you can't See the weight on my heart And you can't, and you can't See the weight on my heart And you can't, and you can't (these are our) See the weight in the trees And you can't, and you can't See the weight of the leaves And you can't, and you can't See the weight on my heart (these are our falling secrets) And you can't, and you can't See the weight in the trees And you can't, and you can't And you can't, and you can't (these are our)
Despite my efforts to show you how I am feeling, you still cannot see the heaviness that I carry both mentally and physically in our shared experiences

See the weight of the leaves And you can't, and you can't See the weight on my heart (these are our falling secrets) And you can't, and you can't See the weight on my heart (these are our falling secrets) (These are our) (These are our)
Even though we both have secrets and guilt that weigh us down, you remain oblivious to the effect that this has on me
