My Skin

I see forest, stars in the sky at night 
I am dreaming 
I dream as a child 
When I was allowed 
When all was simple 
When nothing could penetrate my skin 

I see youth 
When frowns were stranger then smiles 
Unworn faces full of life, not worry 
I long to return 
I want to still wonder 
I want nothing to penetrate my skin 

We were younger then 
Each day that came 
More we would grow 
But we are older now 
And each day that comes 
Takes more of my life away 

Unscramble 
This whirlwind of thought in my head 
Competition forced into 
Deceit that trusting allows 
Rid me this struggle 
Let me grow, in a world of childhood innocence 
Where nothing can penetrate my skin 

We were younger then 
Each day that came 
The more we would grow 
But we are older now 
And each day that comes 
Takes more of my life away 

I can't explain all the love I've had in my life 
And how sometimes I couldn't feel it 
For picturing it gone 
Love rescue me now 
Hold me tight so that I never forget 
And nothing can penetrate my skin
