New Skin Lyrics

So I'm washing the concealer

Off the fingerprints on my face

And taking my clothes off

To stare in the mirror, naked

I've been wearing too long

What you've done to me

And you'd never thought in the end

I'd be the one to make it

Don't beat me like my father

Don't single me out like the teacher

Don't bully me like those boys in class

Don't touch me like the preacher

Now I am coming up again

Right above the surface

Taking the air that's mine

All back to me

The undue touches are losing

Their weight that held me

So don't ever treat me

As if it was meant to be

Don't beat me like my father

Don't single me out like the teacher

Don't bully me like those boys in class

Don't touch me like the

I cleaned every inch

Cell by cell I've rebuilt

Cell by cell I've regrown

Bit by bit I refilled

And now I wear my new skin

No fingerprints define it

And no one dares to question

The curious eyes are blinded

Don't beat me like my father

Don't single me out like the teacher

Don't bully me like those boys in class

Don't beat me like my father

Don't single me out like the teacher

Don't bully me like those boys in class

Don't touch me like the preacher
