Skin

Verse 1

An anchor stripped away from every steady shore

A sudden quiet where the gale began to roar

The ledger balanced on a scale of pure disdain

While every pillar crumbles in the pouring rain

They come with words of venom dressed as faithful friends

To parse the method where the suffering descends

He sits in ashes, peeling back the ruined hide

With nowhere left to run and nowhere left to hide

​

Chorus

Strip the skin

Strip the sin

See the truth

See the truth

Strip the skin

Strip the sin

See the truth

See the truth

​

Verse 2

The whisper echoes from the tempest in the sky

A voice of thunder demanding reason for the cry

"Where were you when the foundations were first laid?"

A heavy reckoning of debts that must be paid

He covers up his mouth and stares into the deep

While promises are broken that the heavens keep

A total stripping of the mantle and the pride

With nowhere else to turn and nowhere left to hide

​[Chorus]

Strip the skin

Strip the sin

See the truth

See the truth

Strip the skin

Strip the sin

See the truth

See the truth!

​[Chorus]

Strip the skin

Strip the sin

See the truth

See the truth

Strip the skin

Strip the sin

See the truth

See the truth
