Skin

All day long she's waiting for the night to ask her out

To be somebody's dancer, to get lost inside a crowd

There's no need to talk because the music is so loud

'Til a taxi drives her back into a morning full of doubt

You can feel like part of something if you're part of the scene

You can make your life look pretty, add a little ice and gin

Wash off the makeup and prepare the Aspirin

Oh, you can get out of this party dress but you can't get out of this, skin

His home is where his heart is at the parties that he roams

He tells himself he can't be lonely 'cause he's never on his own

But all the friends he makes tonight, in the morning, they are gone

And he's left with his four walls, his aching head, his silent phone

You can feel like part of something if you're part of the scene

You can make your life look pretty, add a little ice and gin

Wash off the makeup and prepare the Aspirin

Oh, you can get out of this party dress but you can't get out of this

Hearing your own echos in the empty staircase

And you're walking through your dark apartment looking for a friendly face

Because the Polaroid pictures on your fridge won't do

No, the Polaroid pictures on your fridge won't do

No, the Polaroid pictures on your fridge won't do

No, they won't do

You can feel like part of something if you're part of the scene

You can make your life look pretty, add a little ice and gin

Wash off the makeup and prepare the Aspirin

Oh, you can get out of this party dress but you can't get out of this

All day long she's waiting for the night to ask her out

To be somebody's dancer, just a puppet in the crowd

And how to move her feet is all she has to think about

'Til a taxi drives her back into a morning full of doubt

You can feel like part of something if you're part of the scene

You can make your life look pretty, add a little ice and gin

Wash off the makeup and prepare the Aspirin

Oh, you can get out of this party dress but you can't get out

Of feeling like part of something if you're part of the scene

You can make your life look pretty, add a little ice and gin

Wash off the makeup and prepare the Aspirin

Oh, you can get out of this party dress but you can't get out of this, skin
