Inside Our Skin - Emery

This is what comes of the best intentions we have
They get lost with the rest and soon forgotten
And the money we spend is to make amends
For the time that we've never
To make amends for the time that we've never given

We all feel real inside our skin
With selfish hearts that hide our sin
But everyone that runs a race can't win
We all, we all
feel real, feel real
Inside, our skin.

If God is good, then what are we?
There is no plant without a seed
When morning comes, will we believe
All that was lost can be retrieved?

You say you're good, then let me see
A faith is dead without the deed.
How can we fail if we believe?
Let's be who we were meant to be.

We all feel real inside our skin
With selfish hearts that hide our sin
But no one really knows our deepest secrets
We will separate ourselves from everyone that we know
We can't allow a single doubt or weakness to show
And just one more day without the shame
And I can move on.
I'll be happier, happier when I've...

We say, we're so misunderstood,
(We will separate ourselves from everyone that we know)
but I know we don't do the things we should
(We can't allow a single doubt or weakness to show)
So long to what I thought I was
(And just one more day without the shame and I can move on)
I'll be happier, happier when I've given up.

Wisdom light my way into the dark
Your words, the melody that carries me
We can't make a change 'til we know who we are
What burns? The fire refining me
Wisdom light my way into the dark
The melody that carries me
We can't make a change, know who we are
The fire refining me
Refining me.
