Identity sometimes seems fleeting |
|
An ever-changing tapestry |
|
But at it's heart is the foundation |
|
The very essence of our being |
|
Shed your skin |
|
Cast off your chains |
|
Feel the sun upon your face for once |
|
And wash away the pain |
|
Shed your skin |
|
Be who you are |
|
Unencumbered by the weight |
|
Of hiding every little scar |
|
At times the self seems in transition |
|
A mere projection on a screen |
|
But what happens when you turn the lights on |
|
And things are not as they once seemed? |
|
Shed your skin |
|
Cast off your chains |
|
Feel the sun upon your face for once |
|
And wash away the pain |
|
Shed your skin |
|
Be who you are |
|
Unencumbered by the weight |
|
Of hiding every little scar |
|
Who we are is always changing |
|
A never-ending course of growth |
|
But deep inside there is a pillar |
|
Deep inside there is a soul |
|
Shed your skin |
|
Cast off your chains |
|
Feel the sun upon your face for once |
|
And wash away the pain |
|
Shed your skin |
|
Be who you are |
|
Unencumbered by the weight |
|
Of hiding every little scar |
