lyrics

Skin

Son, I know
what you’ve learned may disturb you
Son, I’ll go - now you won’t have to protect me

This I chose: no one’s to blame
for there was life before the dying
There was feast before the famine

You were born in a time of abundance
Close your eyes -
we can still taste the kindness

But he was scared;
he stole what I would have given
If I could - but some things cannot be given

You found my skin, made it wet again

The ocean’s wide, and I was often tempted
Your hand in mine a soft and trusting tether

Dead and dry - shells and bones and sun-bleached feathers
Throw them back - every ill-begotten treasure

What a sin, and what a gift to be selfish
To swim away - I saved myself, and now we’ll all pay

I’ll long for you all the rest of my lone days
You must not come, though you’ll hear me calling your name

You found my skin, made it wet again
