Beneath My Skin

Changed my clothes Changed my room Changed every name I answered to

Tore the pages Changed the plans Still recognize These shaking hands Every

mirror catches something I was certain I erased I keep running from

a version Who already knows my face

Push her down

Cover her up

She keeps coming back

BENEATH MY SKIN

There I am again Every place I've ever been Every girl I've

ever been

I CAN'T CUT HER OUT

I can't start again Maybe I don't have to lose Who I

was To know who I am

New city

Same mistakes

Different doors

Same escape

Every road I swear is different

Finds the footprints that I left Maybe I've been chasing distance

From a shadow in my steps

Lock her out

Shut her up

Still I hear her underneath

BENEATH MY SKIN

There I am again

Every place I've ever been

Every girl I've ever been

I CAN'T CUT HER OUT I can't start again

Maybe I don't have to lose

Who I was

To know who I am

You made mistakes?

So did I.

You lost your way?

SO DID I.

You're still in here?

FINE.

Stand beside me— NOT IN MY WAY!

BENEATH MY SKIN

Yeah, she's still within Every lesson,

every failure Every place that I have been I WON'T CUT HER

OUT I won't start again

I don't have to hate Who I was

TO LOVE WHO I AM You're part of me.

Not all of me.
