Second Skin

By Nic Morrison-Cooley
Why do you breathe me in?
Move with me like I’m your second skin
How do you know my mind
Better than I know mine

Can’t be real
This connection
Every trip
Every lesson
Giving me grace
Giving me space to change
To grow, to (hmm)

Things got real
Every heartbreak
All the words
Every mistake

Always say I won’t run this time
Know I need to come back this time

Lord, I need you like the sun needs to rise
Everything I got through, you stay by my side
Falling into my flaws and mistakes
When I just want to stay

Why do you breathe me in?
Move with me like I’m your second skin
How do you know my mind
Better than I know mine

I’m so sorry, take me home
Swore I knew better, swore I’m grown
At my core is a child all alone
Grew into the pain, and yet you call me your own

I need time
Need a vacay
I need space
Just some time away

From the flesh, from the world
Just a boy, just a girl
In need of their father

Dad, I want you more than stars want the sky
Even with values that I tossed aside
Your forgiveness gets me through the day
You let me stay

Why do you breathe me in
Move with me like I’m your second skin
How o you know my mind
Better than I know mine

Why do you hold me close?
Medicine after an overdose
Jesus, take all my mind
God knows it’s not mine

I’m so sorry, take me home
Swore I knew better, swore I’m grown
At my core is a child all alone
Grew into the pain, and yet you call me your own
