"Second Skin" Lyrics

This is the season
These are the waking days
Throw off your wet sheets
Step into the Soft Parade
Hollowed and glisten
Like sweat on a moving train
Baby, listen
We're about to be born again

Come down
This is your second skin
Surround
This is your second skin
This is the love inside
These are your fears you hide away

Maybe it's a burden
Or maybe it's nature's gift
The stretch and the burn
All the colors you're working with
This is a cleaning
These are the shapes we've taken in
Real life our dreaming
This is our second skin

Come down
This is your second skin
Surround
This is your second skin
This is the love inside
These are your fears and pride today

This is just another story
Whisper the walk you walk
Magic and glory
This is just flesh from talk
This is a moment
This is the time to choose
This is your hour
Nothing but skin to lose

Come down
This is your second skin
Surround
This is your second skin
This is the love inside
These are your fears you hide away

Come down
This is your second skin
Surround
This is your second skin
This is the love inside
These are your fears and pride today
