If I never had to catch that train
If nobody would have called my name
If you'd never, would I have ever find out
You had questions and you knew names
Hidden secrets a-length in change
Wrapped in circles locked in squares
Chorus:
I was a stranger in my own skin
7 layers grace and wearing thin
I was a stranger in my own skin
7 layers I've been hiding in
Fathers' eyes and my fathers' smile
I couldn't tell I was just a child
Missing memories replaced by doubts
Speaking thoughts into my ears
told herself what she had to hear
but did she ever think I'd never find out
Chorus:
I was a stranger in my own skin
7 layers grace and wearing thin
I was a stranger in my own skin
The 7 layers I've been hiding in
Spinning round and round in circles
Time to light the followup stream
Running around in all your secrets
One by one unraveling
Chorus:
I was a stranger in my own skin
7 layers grace, and wearing thin
I was a stranger in my own skin
The 7 layers I've been hiding in
Ooohh ooohh
Chorus:
I was a stranger in my own skin
7 layers I've been hiding in
