Torres, The War On Drugs, Sharon Van Etten - New Skin lyrics

Lay off me would ya
I’m just trying to take this
New skin for a spin pray for me would ya
I’m just nervous 'bout my family filing in
Ready to wrap me up ready to love me in this
New skin I’m filling in

Who’s that trying to speak for me?
What is it that they claim to be?
A child of God much like yourself
You will find me right where I fell

I am a tired woman
In January, I will just be twenty-three
In Kansas City, i was undressed and bested
By an airtight floor
Then it said, "By the power in me vested"
And wrapped me in this new skin I’m dying for

Who’s that trying to speak for me?
What kind of love do they claim to be?
A child of God much like yourself
You’ll still find me right where I fell

Who’s that trying to speak for me?
What kind of love do they claim to be?
A child of God much like yourself
You’ll still find me right where I fell

The darkness fears what darkness knows
But, if you’ve never known the darkness
Then you’re the one who fears the most

The darkness fears what darkness knows
But, if you’ve never known the darkness
Then you’re the one who fears the most

The darkness fears what darkness knows
But, if you’ve never known the darkness
Then you’re the one who fears the most

But, if you do not know the darkness
Then you’re the one who fears the most
But, if you do not know the darkness
Then you’re the one I fear the most
