Lyrics Beneath My Skin - Stemm

Beneath My Skin

Darkness fills the whole house
Like a shadow in the shade
Cuz the life you live
Is the life you blame
Now I’m left standing in the rain?
All I wanted was for you to believe
In the only thing that made me feel so free
And now I’m tearing down all that I started
Today is the last time
You crawl beneath my skin
Sever the life-line
That I used to let you in
And the scars remain
Where you carved your name
And now I’m tearing down everything left of you
Silence fills the holes now
Where I used to feel no shame
And I feel you standing above me
Like a lion stalks his prey
(Now) All I want is for you to bleed
I’m not as close as you seem to think
And now I’m tearing down all that I started
Today is the last time
You crawl beneath my skin
Sever the life-line
That I used to let you in
And the scars remain
Where you carved your name
And now I’m tearing down everything left of you
Oh
All that’s left of you
Oh
Shed my skin of you
Was it happiness you found?
When you were pushing me around?
Yet I hold the flame to hope and my desires
Ashes of a burned heart
But did not ask for this
Today is the last time
You crawl beneath my skin
Sever the life-line
That I used to let you in
And the scars remain
Where you carved your name
And now I’m tearing down everything left of…
Today is the last time
Today is the last time
Today is the last time
Today is the last time
And the scars remain
Where you carved your name
And now I’m tearing down everything left of
Nothing more to give you
As I hold the flame to hope and my desires
