Georgia Lock - Skin Lyrics

I keep complaining that I can't get back to myself
When I do for a second
I wanna be someone else
And I'm finding this constant contradiction
A little hard to live in

I curse at myself for the way that I feel
But it's the same trait I used to praise
Cause it makes me real
And I'm finding it a little inhospitable
In this skin

When you're at war
With your thoughts
And how you were before
Kind of hurts to
Think about
No one can hear me now
Remind yourself it changes
You're going through phases
There's a light here
From the candle by the window
Hear the rain
Yes
But there's a light here
All the same

I'm reflecting on how quickly that it all changed
Yes the fall it was fast and the climb how it drained
But just look where you are now
Walking past the beginning
Thriving through this feeling

When you're at war
With your thoughts
And how you were before
Kind of hurts to
Think about
No one can hear me now
Remind yourself it changes
You're going through phases
There's a light here
From the candle by the window
Hear the rain
Yes
But there's a light here
All the same

Today I felt it there under my skin
Something new yet familiar
Nostalgia creeps in
I think she might be back
But I'm scared to scare her away

When peace arrives and you're not used to it
Ironically its presence becomes the opposite
And I think she might be home
And I'd like her to stay

When you're at war
With your thoughts
And how you were before
Kind of hurts to
Think about
No one can hear me now
Remind yourself it changes
You're going through phases
There's a light here
From the candle by the window
Hear the rain
Yes
But there's a light here
All the same
