Skin Lyrics by Allison Ponthier

Breaking the Fourth Wall

2024

[Verse 1]
She knows everything 'bout everything
And I know I know nothing at all (Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
She's effortless, delicate
But tough enough to get in a brawl (Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
Maybe she's hidin' a rabbit's foot, a clover, or a crystal ball (Ball, ball, ball)
And I can't even hate her, she deserves the world and this song
[Chorus]
I'd say, I wanna wear your skin just for a day
I wanna feel special for a change
I wanna be the shit, one little taste
Of all the thoughts that rattle your brain
I bet it's nothin', oh, I bet it's nothin' at all
[Verse 2]
I bet she doesn't cry in therapy
'Cause honestly hеr trauma sounds cool (Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
She's got the luxury of sufferin' in a hеated infinity pool (Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
She's the people's princess, pitchfork songstress and I'm a gross fly on the wall (Wall, wall, wall)
Do I want her life or as a wife?
Well, here's what I would say if she called
[Chorus]
I'd say, I wanna wear your skin just for a day
I wanna feel special for a change
I wanna be the shit, one little taste
Of all the thoughts that rattle your brain
I bet it's nothin', oh, I bet it's nothin' at all (Bet it's nothin' at all)
I wouldn't ever, oh, I wouldn't ever feel small
[Bridge]
You wouldn't last a day, you wouldn't make it
Crumble under the weight when we switch places
I'd be the golden child, the special favorite
You wouldn't know how good you got it until I take it
[Chorus]
I wanna wear your skin just for a day
I wanna feel special for a change
I wanna be the shit, one little taste
Of all the thoughts that rattle your brain
I bet it's nothin', oh, I bet it's nothin' at all (Bet it's nothin' at all)
I wouldn't ever, oh, I wouldn't ever feel small
