Let me out!

I am a guest in my own skin

This skin suit is not suited for me

I do not feel at home in my own bones

They ache and creak with each breath I breathe

How does one find their own way out

of their own skin?

My existence, was created from sin

Let me out,

set me free

from my bones

I lost myself in your skin tones

and because of that

I left myself behind

feels like I'm losing my fucking mind

just waiting for the time

when I feel like

this body is mine
