Under My Skin

[Instrumental intro] In the corners of this room Walls listen when I speak Surrounded yet isolated With the solace that I seek I wander in my mind Through the alleys of disdain Looking for the exit sign From the boulevards of pain Under my skin, it resonates With the beats of suppressed cries Under my skin, it devastates The calm, a storm in disguise Every morning's a confrontation Every night a deeper dive Searching for salvation In a struggle to survive Reflections in the window Are strangers to my eyes Who is this looking back? Whose spirit beneath lies? Under my skin, it resonates With the beats of suppressed cries Under my skin, it devastates The calm, a storm in disguise Can't detach from the whispers That echo through the halls Of this castle built of doubts Within these crumbling walls I gather all my fears As the evening shadows blend Silent screams at the moon Will this labyrinth ever end? Under my skin, it resonates With the beats of suppressed cries Under my skin, it devastates The calm, a storm in disguise Underneath the surface tight Beneath the smiles that feign alright Lies a truth too raw to face In the quiet, I find my place I gather all my fears As the evening shadows blend Silent screams at the moon Will this labyrinth ever end? Under my skin, it resonates With the beats of suppressed cries Under my skin, it devastates The calm, a storm in disguise [Guitar solo] Underneath the surface tight Beneath the smiles that feign alright Lies a truth too raw to face In the quiet, I find my place [End] Underneath the surface tight Beneath the smiles that feign alright Lies a truth too raw to face In the quiet, I find my place [Outro] [End]
