But I would never pull too tight. The way you carry all your silence I see it shimmer in the light. They never stayed long at your surface. But I am here, and I begin to trace the truths you hide so softly, the ones that live beneath your skin. (…beneath our skin) [Verse 2] Your hands remember older winters. Your voice still shakes in gentle rooms. But every scar you tried to cover it sings to me like distant flutes. I won’t repair you, won’t repaint you. You are not wrong for what you’ve been. I only wish to hold the echo of all that aches beneath your skin. (…beneath our skin) (…beneath our skin) [Chorus] I don’t want perfect. I want true. A soul with shadows breaking through. The cracks you fear I might despise they shine like stars in quiet skies. I’d rather tremble as I touch than ever ask for half too much. You are a world I enter in so careful beneath our skin. (…beneath our skin) [Bridge] Not to claim you. Just to know. Not to fix you. Just to glow. Not to hold you tight or proud but like a whisper not too loud. [Final Chorus] I’ll never ask you to be whole. I love the shape your fractures stole. And if they fade or rise again I’ll be the breath beneath your skin. (…beneath our skin) (…beneath our skin)
