Porcelain Skin Lyrics by The Northern

Cloudburst

2020

(This is no way to live life)
(This is no way, just waiting to die)
(This is no way to live life)
(This is no way, just waiting to die)
Everything is bleak
Vacant eyes, blank face, swollen lips
A cold stare that nothing could compare
Choking on these crooked teeth
I can’t speak with all this glass caught between my teeth
Separate from this insanity
Obsessiveness, contagious behavior
I will believe that there’s still hope instilled in me
In you and I, in you and I
I can’t believe that you’re still not here
But you’re still not here and I’m nowhere near
Now, suffer me through
Cut ourselves down right in two
Swallows pride, shattered glass cuts through our lives
Now suffer me through
Cut ourselves down right in two
Swallows pride, shattered glass cuts through her eyes
She screams beware
She follows me close (Follows me close)
She says the end is near if you don’t steer clear
Be wary
Beware
Walk with me through the flames of
Walk with me through the flames of the fire
Walkthrough the burning flames
Walk with me through flames of the fire
Unscathed, we breathe through fear
All I see is a bleak future staring right back at me
Why can’t we say what we feel?
(We're too scared to say how we feel)
Something here has to change
Instead of casting blame and judgment
Too scared to say what is real
Too many people turn their backs on us
“Out of sight, out of mind” is easiest
Too scared to say what is real
(This is no way to live life)
(This is no way, just waiting to die)
All I see is a bleak
Future staring right back at me
Why can't we say what we feel?
Too many people turn their back on us
"Out of sight, out of mind" is easiest
Too scared to say what is real
(This is no way to live life)
(This is no way, just waiting to die)
