Flume - Skin Lyrics






Never Be Like You

[ Featuring kai ]

What I would do to take away this fear of being loved
Allegiance to the pain
Now I'm f*cked up and I'm missing you
He'll never be like you
I would give anything to change this fickle-minded heart
That loves fake shiny things
Now I'm f*cked up and I'm missing you
He'll never be like you

I'm only human, can't you see?
I made, I made a mistake
Please just look me in my face
Tell me everything's okay
'Cause I got it
Ooh, he'll never be like you
I'm only human, can't you see?
I made, I made a mistake
Please just look me in my face
Tell me everything's okay
'Cause I got it
Ooh, he'll never be like you

How do I make you wanna stay?
Hate sleeping on my own, missing the way you taste
Now I'm f*cked up and I'm missing you
He'll never be like you
Stop looking at me with those eyes
Like I could disappear and you wouldn't care why
Now I'm f*cked up and I'm missing you
He'll never be like you

I'm only human, can't you see?
I made, I made a mistake
Please just look me in my face
Tell me everything's okay
'Cause I got it
Ooh, he'll never be like you
I'm only human, can't you see?
I made, I made a mistake
Please just look me in my face
Tell me everything's okay
'Cause I got it
Ooh, he'll never be like you

I'm falling on my knees
Forgive me, I'm a f*cking fool
I'm begging, darling, please
Absolve me of my sins, won't you?
Oh, I'm falling on my knees
Forgive me, I'm a f*cking fool
I'm begging, darling, please
Absolve me of my sins, won't you?

I'm only human, can't you see?
I made, I made a mistake
Please just look me in my face
Tell me everything's okay
'Cause I got it
Ooh, he'll never be like you
I'm only human, can't you see?
I made, I made a mistake
Please just look me in my face
Tell me everything's okay
'Cause I got it
Ooh, he'll never be like you

Baby, baby please believe me
Come on, take it easy
Please don't ever leave me
Ooh, he'll never be like you

Lose It

Put away your inhibitions
Let the beast in you just get loose
We all young, wild and different
We could all get lit from a lil goose

I know you're terrified by what the future lies
But there's no compromising, it's my way or the highway
We all just played the lust, hard building breaking trust
She gon' get wowed when we come out
Like she gon' get loud when the weed come out this instant
Give a f*ck what your friends think
Tell they boozy ass go wait in line
With them lame niggas talking real rap
Tell 'em break your neck go and bust a rhyme

Blow one down, pass it around ay!
F*ck with me now, we're running wild ay!
Nobody game, we own the town ay!
Never come down, I'll never come down

Lose it
I might lose it
Lose it
I might lose it

Everybody got guilty pleasures
Mine just turned to catch me cases
Handcuffs, police inspections
Lawyers, judges, allegations

Turn on your favorite station
You hear the same old song
I feel like Nagasaki, dog
I'm 'bout to drop the bomb

Blow one down, pass it around ay!
F*ck with me now, we're running wild ay!
Nobody game, we own the town ay!
Never come down, I'll never come down

Blow one down, pass it around ay!
F*ck with me now, we're running wild ay!
Nobody game, we own the town ay!
Never come down, I'll never come down

Lose it
I might lose it
I might lose it
I might lose it

Lose it
I might lose it
I might lose it
I might lose it

Lose it
I might lose it

Numb & Getting Colder

Make your decisions now
Weight it up
Facing a long road down
Keeping your head above
Saying the same thing twice, won't make it right
Head up in your desires, whoah

Maybe we're looking for different way
Does it matter when you act like this
Yeah, you got into something
Now you took control of you, oh
Cause you say it, but you won't admit it, oh
Numb and getting colder, physical existence
Say something

Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you

Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you

Not gonna tell you stop, ease it up
Hold your emotions back, stop taking it out on her
I'm gonna lose no pride, giving up
We're going on lockdown

But maybe you're looking for a different way
Does it matter when you act like this
Yeah, you got into something
Now you took control of you, oh
Cause you say it, but you won't admit it, oh
Numb and getting colder, physical existence
Say something

Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you

Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you

If I feel like losing my mind
We're into deep
But feelings often we leave behind
I'm too weak from this
[?]
And trust your instincts
Broken, don't do one thing, survive
So primitively

Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you

Said you begged to leave
I won't be behind you
And I can't breathe, breathe
I won't be behind you

Say It

[Verse 1: Tove Lo]
Feeling the song, party done
Shadows walking home
Walking with our game on
You are my kind, classic mind
And you look so fine
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Loving the cold, smoke a roll
See your fingers shake
I'm getting through your heart break
Some kinda freak, sing for me
Don't know what I need
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

[Pre-Chorus: Tove Lo]
Don't doubt me babe
You make me wanna change
Break my bed to make me wanna stay
I can't...
Bite me babe
You make me love the pain
Break my bed to make me wanna stay
I can't...

[Chorus: Tove Lo]
When you say it like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Got me falling right back
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
When you say it like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Let me f*ck you right back
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

[Verse 2: Tove Lo]
I'm getting the door, silent walk
Whose the first to speak?
Speak it like a real freak
Voice in my head, in my bed
Filled with you instead
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Taking your time, work my mind
And I play with you
I play pretend it's so true
Follow me down
Listen 'round to the deep dark sound
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

[Pre-Chorus: Tove Lo]
Don't doubt me babe
You make me wanna change
Break my bed to make me wanna stay
I can't...
Bite me babe
You make me love the pain
Break my bed to make me wanna stay
I can't...

[Chorus: Tove Lo]
When you say it like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Got me falling right back
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
When you say it like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Let me f*ck you right back
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

[Bridge: Instrumental]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
When you say it like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus: Tove Lo]
Don't doubt me babe
You make me wanna change
Break my bed to make me wanna stay
I can't...
Bite me babe
You make me love the pain
Break my bed to make me wanna stay
I can't...

[Chorus: Tove Lo]
When you say it like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Got me falling right back
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
When you say it like that
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Let me f*ck you right back
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

You Know

Sometimes it feels like
The world spin opposite of the way you spin
Sometimes you just gotta create your own
A world

I been on a mission, man
I been on a mission lately
Some sticky situations I just grinder down to make it
I've never been to prison, man
Still don't know what it is to break free, no, no
Now I live my vision plan, no need to hallucinate
These niggas be slipping, man, I think they gon' make me angry
If they would've listened I could'a kept my cool today
Evil got me tripping, man, I don't think that you can say, no, no
You're in my position, man, you just couldn't hit the brakes

I can't believe it
Word on the street's one of my soldiers talking to them alphabet boys
My first reaction is to find out who, where and why
Put the word out and bring 'em to me now, but keep 'em alive
Put some bread on his head and make sure he'll rot
Cause this is something I ain't tolerating
Plus I'm getting impatient
I'm fainting o' breaking for real, but I'm salivating
My phone rung it's at the seven o'clock sharp

They said they had 'em in one o' my warehouses by the dock
Jumped in the Benz with a ill look, no grin
With a still hook, I'ma 'bout to do this coward in
When I got there DD was already tied up
Pillow case on his head and the blood stains dried up
The moment I been waiting for is finally here
I get to see who done betrayed me
Snatched the pillow case off his wig and sold him in
Now it's time to face me
Who I see, my little niece boyfriend I seen
He begging me not to kill him
I told 'em I gotta
As I poured the gasoline, I thought about my little niece
I know she love him, but he a snail
He tryna push love in jail
Take me from my wife and kids
Why should I spare this maggot life and limb
Man, it is what it is
He chose to play this game
I lit the match and watched his friend go up in flames

Get emotion
We in motion
Make commotion
I can feel
How we roll on
Keep it going
Let it go out
Take the wheel
So open your eyes
I'm amazed, I know
So open your eyes
To the things I know
We rode it for life
Put the game on me
If we don't get it right
Put the blame on me

Guess again
Thought that you could pull the word over a veteran
I would pull the trigger but I'm thinking that it's better I, better I
Burn you like a cinder, let me share the light, share the light
(Yeah)
Gasoline
Pour it in my tank
Now it's absorbing in your skin
Man, this fool is dimmer and I wish she had a better mind, better mind
Where you talking now you were regretting mind, get it right
I been cutting loose ends
Why your lips so loose talking
I could f*ck with new friends too
Gotta get it with my new
I could be a nuisance
But not if you use caution
Been committing new sins
It's time to write some look for my bitch

Take A Chance

So you feel all your powers unfold
Stretching your big wings over waters turning gold
So tell your story, baby, don't give up
Just let all it go out, the quiet wishing's not loud enough

Will you be the one to take a chance?
Have demands, spill your heart
Will you be the one to take a stand
Make the girls dance
Spill your thoughts
Will you be the one to take a chance?
Have demands, spill your heart
Will you be the one to take a stand
Make the girls dance
Spill your thoughts, will you?

You could break up clouds with your fist in the air
We're singing out loud as we march up the square
He always goes to put you in your place
And now you're chanting out loud so you can't be erased

Will you be the one to take a chance?
Have demands, spill your heart
Will you be the one to take a stand
Make the girls dance
Spill your thoughts
Will you be the one to take a chance?
Have demands, spill your heart
Will you be the one to take a stand
Make the girls dance
Spill your thoughts, will you?

Will you be the one to take a chance?
Have demands, spill your heart
Will you be the one to take a stand
Make the girls dance
Spill your thoughts
Will you be the one to take a chance?
Have demands, spill your heart
Will you be the one to take a stand
Make the girls dance
Spill your thoughts, will you?

Innocence

When you hold me
All your innocence, something broken
All your innocence when you hold me
You hold me
All your innocence, something broken
Broken
All your innocence when you hold me
You hold me
All your innocence, something broken
Broken
All your innocence when you hold me
You hold me
All your innocence, something broken
Broken
All your innocence...

(Yes, yes, yes, don't stop, stop, stop...)
When you hold me
All your innocence, something broken
Broken
All your innocence when you hold me
(Yes, yes, yes, yes....)
All your innocence, something broken
All your innocence....
(Yes, yes, yes, yes....)

Begin again, begin again
How do we begin again?
Start again, start again
How do we make it all a game?
Begin again, begin again
How do we begin again?
Start again, start again
How do we make it all a game?

How do we erase
And how do we evade
(Something broken, broken)
(All your innocence)
How do we erase
And how do we evade
(Something broken, broken)
(All your innocence)

All we want is a chance to give ourselves
Our way, our way
(All your innocence)
All we want is a chance to give ourselves
Our way, our way
(All your innocence)

Tiny Cities

Can I, should I, find my way home?
Or did I, think I, better go home?
All I, said I, needed was God
But I, thought I, had it all wrong

Now can it, ever, be the same way?
When they never seem to forgive
So it hurt more that you said
On the dark side of your head
Oh, she is following me in my head, but I am all alone
Thinking I'll fall every time I wanna try to let her go
It's never easy when you think you're in control
Somehow you get caught up in the moment and you never know
All these tiny cities that you're holding in your little hand
In the wind like diamond lights, they'll blow away in desert sand
It was never perfect, it was never meant to last
It was never perfect, it was never meant to last

It was never perfect, it was never meant to last
It was never perfect, it was never meant to last
It was never perfect, it was never meant to last
It was never perfect, it was never meant to last

Why can't I fall down into the hole (Gotta get it, back back)
Why can't I fall down into the hole (Gotta get it, back back)

Can I ever get ahead of what I want and what I need?
And what do I have to do to get away from what is killing me?
How can I convince myself to not believe in what I know?
When all I see is dominoes falling up it as we go
