Shedding the Skin (Velvet) (Remastered)

The duet starts with sparse piano voicings, setting a spacious, moody atmosphere, Female 1 enters with breathy, ethereal phrasing, gliding into crystalline head voice and airy flips, Female 2 blends in, offering earthy lows and agile, expressive upper melodies, Guitar joins with delicate fingerpicking, interlocking subtly with the piano, Dynamics ebb and flow—gentle interplay, shimmering upper harmonies, finely layered vibrato, and agile runs, Bridge spotlights both voices weaving in contrast—mezzo’s crystalline timbre atop soprano’s controlled ascents—then resolves in softly layered harmonics and restrained instrumental close

by Mioki with Solania [Verse 1] From the old I must now break free Shed this skin, let the old me be A new path, a chance to heal Or in darkness forever kneel [Chorus] Shedding the skin under the sun's light A transformation, a rebirth in sight Shedding the skin to find what's true Can I change? Can I start anew? [Verse 2] I've been the terror, the night's dread But maybe there's more beyond this spread Of power, of war, of endless night Can I step into the light? [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] The scales fall away, one by one, A new day begins, under the sun. What once was hard, now softens within, Can the lizard learn to begin again? [Chorus] Shedding the skin under the sun's light A transformation, a rebirth in sight Shedding the skin to find what's true Can I change? Can I start anew? [Verse 4] In the silence of this new dawn, I feel the weight of what's gone. But with each shed scale, a hope, a sign, That maybe, just maybe, I can be benign. [Chorus] Shedding the skin under the sun's light A transformation, a rebirth in sight Shedding the skin to find what's true Can I change? Can I start anew? [Verse 5] I've ruled with fear, with iron might, But now I seek a different fight. Not for conquest, not for dread, But for peace, for life, instead. [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] So here I stand, at this moment's edge, To shed my past like an old pledge. In a reptile's mind, the choice is clear, To shed the skin, or stay here. [Chorus] Shedding the skin under the sun's light A transformation, a rebirth in sight Shedding the skin to find what's true Can I change? Can I start anew? [Final Chorus] Shedding the skin under the sun's light A transformation, a rebirth in sight Shedding the skin to find what's true Can I change? Can I start anew? ========================================== ©2025 Enlightened Entertainment. All rights reserved.
