Velvet Skin

I seen her
(Eric, E-Eric, look at me)
I seen her face
The world outside
Uh
(Okay, let's go)

I can't be there every night
The rain will put you to sleep
When curses cloud up your mind (Yeah)
Remember, just think of me (Huh, yeah)
I miss your skin touchin' mine
It makes it easy to breathe
I crave the warmth of your eyes
The amber warms up my feet (Yeah)
I feel your lips match to mine
I sense your spit on my teeth
When pain has nowhere to hide (Okay)
You get what you did to me (In time)

The forest brings me to life
The sprites will force me to eat (Yeah)
This eucalyptus and pine
Make up the fumes that I breathe
Slowly, I adapt to their kind
And feed my blood to these seeds
'Cause every spawned tree of life
Is sewn up tight from our leaves (Yeah)
Our heartbeats match up (Yeah), but mine beats venom (Yeah)
Oh, it beats toxins (Yeah), I've turned to what I once ran from (No)
Shame lives in shadow, I'm the example
Our worst faults, only the dark knows (Yeah)
These old grand pianos scatter the castle
As sad songs swim through the stone walls (Yeah)
The heads on the mantle hit her sentimental
The last trimmed face to do her so wrong (Uh-huh, yeah)

I can't be there every night
The rain will put you to sleep (Okay)
When curses cloud up your mind
Remember, just think of me (Yeah)
I miss your skin touchin' mine
It makes it easy to breathe
I crave the warmth of your eyes (Yeah)
The amber warms up my feet (Yeah)
I feel your lips match to mine (Yeah)
I sense your spit on my teeth
When pain has nowhere to hide (Yeah)
You get what you did to me, hm

Yeah
You get what you did to me (To me)
