I'm like a soldier
With no cause to fight
Playing with bar boys
To test you just right

I watch your features
I check for a sign
Of some kind of failure
Then I feel sublime

Now I know I have to live without you
I can only bend so far
Guess it's time to make some moves
without you
Now you've gone and trashed my heart

Solid demeanour
I look good a feat
Still I'm too vicious
To take on defeat

Yes I hear
You don't feel this any more
I see
There's nothing to believe in anymore
Just two snitches on heat
Still avoiding the grief
Because it felt so hard

Every artist these days collaborates. Half the charts are "artist feat. another artist" Skin should be showing them what she's got.

Yes, she's from UK and she was the lead vocal in the band called Skunk Anansie. Their music was like a punk rock sound. Her voice was still amazing. Go and see their clips on youtube.

@sharklord You can't really compare the two. Gaga sings pop, which is by definition a 'disposable' type of music, meaning that her song's gonna be popular for a month or two, and then usually forgotten. Also, pop lyrics are rarely deep and meaningful. Skunk Anansie's lyrics are like poetry, deep and beautiful, and therefore everlasting. Both of them are great at what they do, and both have amazing voices, too :)

A great song from a greatly underated singer. This is for my partner Kevin who took his own life 8 years ago, it's my angry song song 2 him. I miss him so much. Just like 2 say calm yourself danno700, every singer is good in their own right. I've loved Skin and Skunk Anansie since they've been around but i also like Britney and some Madonna, does that make me a person with no musical taste...... i think not. Just a good taste in a VARIETY of music, open your mind mind u dull little person.

I hate brining these artists up, since so many people do it, and they don't deserve the attention. But I have say it. Why is lady gaga so popular, and skin isn't? Clearly skin is a better singer. And here songs actually make sense.
