Borrowed skin

Intro

(soft, distant)

you feel so close (hold)

closer than breath

In my dreams

In my veins

⸻

Verse 1

(steady, low)

you settle in behind my eyes

trace every thought before it’s mine

every word I almost say

you reshape

I catch my voice in different tones

like something wearing what I own

every mirror shifts a bit

doesn’t fit

⸻

Pre-Chorus

(build slowly)

say it like it’s true (hold)

like it all is me

but I feel you move

in the space I breathe

pulling every line

til it bends to you

I don’t know what’s mine

anymore

⸻

Chorus

(slow, heavy, sustained)

in this borrowed skin (hold)

you’re underneath

I try to pull away

you don’t release

under every nerve

you intertwine

I’m barely here now

you redefine (hold)

⸻

Post-Chorus

(soft echo)

stay…

don’t fade…

I feel you stay…

⸻

Verse 2

(darker, intimate)

you speak in ways that sound like me

but twisted just enough to see

every feeling starts to blur

into yours

your presence lingers in my chest

like something warm I can’t reject

every breath I try to take

you replace

⸻

Pre-Chorus

(build tighter)

say it once again

so I can’t ignore

every part of me

leans a little more

⸻

Chorus

(stronger, emotional)

in this borrowed skin

you’re underneath

I try to pull away

you don’t release

under every nerve

you intertwine

I’m losing all sense

of what is mine

⸻

Bridge

(hypnotic, looping)

closer now, don’t disappear

I can feel you everywhere

every line begins to bend

where you end

Come closer, don’t let me go

you’re the only thing I know

every thought returns to you

like it’s true

⸻

Break

(whisper)

if you leave…

what am I?

⸻

Final Chorus

(full, slow, intense)

in this borrowed skin

you’re all I feel

I try to fight it

but it feels real

under every nerve

you intertwine

I’m barely living—

you are my mind (hold)

⸻

Outro

(fading)

stay with me

stay with me

stay…
