Skin on Shadows

[Verse 1]
I shake the cloak from my shoulders
Sheets pulled wide
Cold air bites
I crash onto silk

[Pre-Chorus 1]
No mask, no cover
Just me and night
Curtains drift across the skyline

[Chorus 1]
I lie beneath the night’s breath
Darkness presses close
No armor, nothing to hide
Muscle and shadow — claim the glow

[Verse 2]
Room is still
Alone, alert
Breath slow, taut
Shadows curl where I let go

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Curtains shift
Silhouettes coil
I feel it near
It whispers my name
Above the metropolis

[Chorus 2]
I lie beneath the night’s breath
Dark winds trace my skin
No cover, nothing to hide
Flesh and steel — still and strong

[Verse 3]
Clock ticks low
City sleeps beyond
Every scar, every line
Pulse and stillness collide
Remnants of dark left behind

[Guitar Solo] [12-14 seconds]

[Bridge]
World fades out
I stay awake
No witness near
Just me
Unshackled, bare

[Chorus 3]
I lie beneath the night’s breath
Dark presses on stripped-down skin
No armor, no will to run
Fangs and nails — I stand alone

[Chorus 4: Outro / mantra]
I lie beneath the night’s breath
Dark leans in
Spine and heat — 'til dawn bends
