Skin
The Golden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No thought, no breath, no eyes, no heart

Everyone I see is missing something
Everyone I see is missing something

This dark and secret crime
Cruelty masked as something kind
Sharp against the tenderness
Cold against the emptiness

Everyone I see is missing something
Everyone I see is missing something

Split open to the wound
Send another saviour soon
Eyes closed, torn apart
Body separate from the heart

You wouldn't notice I have no skin
You wouldn't notice I have no skin

Held down on the bed
This is what I think he said
The face of Jesus hung above
I will teach you how to love

You wouldn't notice I have no skin
You wouldn't notice I have no skin

And I can find you anywhere
Even if you run from there
Eyes closed, torn apart
Body separate from the heart

Everyone I see is missing something
Everyone I see is missing something

Balance reaches beyond itself to lay hold of intelligence
So that it's satisfactions brought to the surface of consciousness
May become profounder more intense and more compelling
Violent, we take a step away from awareness
And by striving to grasp the significance of our own violent impulses
We move further away from the frenzied raptures violence instigates

Everyone I see is missing something
Everyone I see is missing something

Burned with a cigarette
Some things you don't forget
Well trained in going numb
Well prepared for what's to come

You wouldn't notice I have no skin
You wouldn't notice I have no skin

No thought, no breath, no eyes, no heart

In order to reach the limits of the ecstasy in which we lose ourselves in bliss
You must set an immediate boundary
Pain can carry me nearer to the moment
Bring me to a state of bliss bordering on delerium

No thought, no breath, no eyes, no heart

And I can find you anywhere
Even if you run from there
Eyes closed, torn apart
Body separate from the heart





You wouldn't notice I have no skin
You wouldn't notice I have no skin

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Golden's song "Skin" explore themes of physical and emotional vulnerability, as well as the tendency of individuals to conceal their innermost struggles and pains. The song suggests that everyone is missing something within themselves - whether it be skin or some intangible quality - and that this missing piece shapes and influences their experiences in life. The singer describes a "dark and secret crime" that he perceives in others, a cruelty that is disguised as kindness and serves to exacerbate feelings of emptiness and isolation. Despite these struggles, the singer asserts that he can find people anywhere, even if they try to run from him, and that through pain and delirium there is a possibility for moments of profound bliss.


The repeated line "you wouldn't notice I have no skin" is a haunting refrain that drives home the song's themes of vulnerability and the hidden aspects of our lives that we keep from each other. The singer seems to suggest that even though he may appear normal on the surface, there is a fundamental part of him that is missing - and this lack of skin exposes him to the world in a way that makes him feel vulnerable and alone.


Overall, the lyrics to "Skin" are poetic, philosophical, and deeply introspective, shining a light on the struggles that we all face in navigating the complex emotions and experiences of life.


Line by Line Meaning

No thought, no breath, no eyes, no heart
I am devoid of emotional connection and empathy.


Everyone I see is missing something
I observe that people are lacking in some way.


This dark and secret crime Cruelty masked as something kind Sharp against the tenderness Cold against the emptiness
I witness acts of evil disguised as good, harming those most vulnerable.


Split open to the wound Send another saviour soon Eyes closed, torn apart Body separate from the heart
I am overwhelmed by the pain and suffering around me and wish for someone to save us from the torment.


You wouldn't notice I have no skin Held down on the bed This is what I think he said The face of Jesus hung above I will teach you how to love
I am trying to hide my true emotions and experiences from others and receive instruction on how to love.


And I can find you anywhere Even if you run from there Eyes closed, torn apart Body separate from the heart
I am hyper-aware and attuned to the suffering of others, and it is impossible to escape from it.


Balance reaches beyond itself to lay hold of intelligence So that it's satisfactions brought to the surface of consciousness May become profounder more intense and more compelling Violent, we take a step away from awareness And by striving to grasp the significance of our own violent impulses We move further away from the frenzied raptures violence instigates
In order to truly understand the complexity of our own desires and emotions, we must be conscious of our actions and their consequences, rather than succumb to the frenzy of violence.


Burned with a cigarette Some things you don't forget Well trained in going numb Well prepared for what's to come
I carry the burden of past trauma and have become desensitized to pain, anticipating future suffering.

Hey, Just_Harrison.

Would you rather TDS still be the pre-hardcore update or the hardcore update?

Truth to be told, I fell out of Tower Defense Simulator, I just lost interest.

1) Mortars and Rocketeers were my 2nd and 3rd most favorite towers
2) John was removed. I hate that.
3) The Golden Cowboy is now bad, and it was just Golden skin.
4) The old update was just really fun
5) I had to change my whole load out.

Old: Golden Cowboy, Mortar, Outlaw, John, and Commander (My brother having DJ)
Old solo: Golden Cowboy, Mortar, Outlaw, Commander, DJ

New: DJ, Farm, Ranger, Pursuit, and Commander.
New Solo: DJ, Farm, Ranger, Minigunner, and Commander.

I MISS YOUR VOICE, I’M SORRY MY BROTHER!!!

Btw golden soldier is better than golden pyro for sure, if you get golden soldier it is not only about other like only stat buff or logically useful, it is for people who don't have gladiator to get another golden crate faster when pyromancer is just......

Whilst golden scout is good because decent damage for such a low price, when you factor in the mode you're on, it makes a difference. Like normal and molten mode, the enemies are slow and dont do much damage, so you can afford to farm a bit or just wait for cash to spawn a unit, example being minigunner. Getting that minigunner to level 3 for 20 dps is 4,500 coins, a bit above golden scout but same dps. However when you account in the golden minigunners 30 dps, you start to think golden scout is less useful, like golden scout is good for multiplayer fallen since you get less cash per wave, plus you need it for hidden wave, but you only do that once.
While it is a good tower, I do feel like it is massively overrated.

You also forget that 1. GM is bearly different than mini gunner when using him in fallen mode except level 5. Level 3 GM agaibst defense enemies do the same dps as level 3 mini gunner. As much as GM is useful its hella overrated and using mini gunner will do a slightly worst job. Also he is rating them how useful they are compared to there counter part so....

DeeJay

@breaking bob fair enough

Even though its been 2 weeks
Harry: I think I have some insight as to why the golden pyro's dps didnt increase. Its because the golden pyro's boost only increases normal damage and not the burn damage. It says 25 percent damage boost that means 2×.25+2=2.5 but since the game doesnt count decimals that would mean that the damage boost does nothing. It would be better if the devs turn the 25 percent boost to 50 percent to give it 1 more damage than the normal pyro.
