The Skin I Kept（版本 2）

Verse

Drawer stays shut

Something dry inside

I know it's mine

I know it's not alive

Held the shape

Long after I left

I know the weight

I know what's left

Pre-Chorus

Tell me why I keep it

Tell me why I fold it flat

I know it's empty

I know that's that

Chorus

The skin I kept

I know it's real, I know it's hollow

I know I moved on

Still I keep it in the drawer

Verse

Paper thin

Still holds the line

I know the outline

Isn't mine

Every crease

Remembers how I bent

I know the shape

Outlasts the tenant

Pre-Chorus

Tell me why I keep it

Tell me why I fold it flat

I know it's empty

I know that's that

Chorus

The skin I kept

I know it's real, I know it's hollow

I know I moved on

Still I keep it in the drawer

Bridge

Not the body

Not the shed

What's left folded

When the self has fled

I know it's real

I know it's strange

The husk stays constant

I'm the one that changed

Chorus

The skin I kept

I know it's real, I know it's hollow

I know I moved on

Still I keep it in the drawer
