(1) SKIN

[Intro — heartbeat rhythm only, 16 bars, nothing else] [Build — bass rises slowly underneath, 8 bars] [Verse 1 — intimate, barely a whisper] Seven billion bodies Walking through the world Every one of them a universe Every one of them a door Nobody knocks Nobody enters Everyone just passes In the corridor [Drop 1 — full groove, heartbeat becomes kick drum] [8 bars instrumental] [Verse 2] We touch our phones A hundred times a day But the skin we're living in We barely dare to say Hello I'm here I made it through again [Hook — slow and hypnotic] Skin Just skin The whole universe Wearing skin Skin Just skin Forgot what we are Underneath [Drop 2 — deep and rolling, dancefloor takes over] [16 bars instrumental] [Bridge — heartbeat returns alone under voice] Every scar Every line Every ordinary morning Sacred [Final Drop — euphoric, wordless, full release] [Outro — heartbeat alone again, slows, stops]
