The Skins I Wear Lyrics

Sinew The Skins I Wear

Empty smile I'm freezing fortify
Schemes our fathers made us play
We live in shame and blame the crucified
Standing tall for lowest needs

It's crawling through my veins
Bleeding with the day
It's crawling through my veins
Ceasing to sustain the spark

Abandon all the skins I wear
I fall
Into this ever breaking heart

There's no love in this temple
He patiently hides between the lines

Changing tied, arising
I step out of the known into the light
Till it blinds

A dark night subsiding tenderly
On life that blooms in splendor
I let go and open all the gates for you

Sympathy has taught me loneliness
New openness brought up old fears
No one can tell the taste of blessedness
But still I learned that it is there

It's crawling through my veins
Bleeding with the day
It's crawling through my veins
Ceasing to sustain the spark

Abandon all the skins I wear
I fall
Into this ever breaking heart
