My Skin Lyrics
Artist(Band):Natalie Merchant
Review The Song (13)Print the Lyrics
Take a look at my body,
look at my hands
there's so much here that I don't understand
Your face saving promises,
whispered like prayers
I don't need them.

I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long as if I'm becoming untouchable...

Well, contempt loves the silence
it thrives in the dark,
the fine winding tendrils that strangle the heart
They say that promises sweeten the blow
but I don't need them... no I don't need them.

I've been treated so wrong,
I've been treated so long as if I'm becoming untouchable
I'm a slow dying flower
I’m the frost killing hour
sweet turning sour
& untouchable.

ooh I need
the darkness,
the sweetness,
the sadness,
the weakness,
ooh I need this.
Need a lullabye,
a kiss goodnight,
angel, sweet love of my life
ooh I need this

I'm a slow dying flower
frost killing hour
the sweet turning sour
& untouchable

Do you remember the way that you touched me before,
all the trembling sweetness
I loved and adored...
Your face saving promises
whispered like prayers.
I don't need them.

I need the darkness,
the sweetness,
the sadness,
the weakness,
ooh I need this.
I need a lullabye
a kiss goodnight,
angel, sweet love of my life
ooh I need this
Well, is it dark enough,
can you see me?
do you want me?
can you reach me?
or I'm leaving...
you better shut your mouth
and hold your breath
you kiss me now,
you catch your death
oh I mean this...
oh I mean this...

Review about My Skin

animal cruelty | Reviewer: tilly | 7/21/2008
    when i watched this, as always I interrupted it as animals speaking and so I typed it in and watched it with animals. It was so unbareable though, and i think if you put an animal behind this vioce, trapped, beaten, tested on in labs, squashed up together in a cattle lorry it really suits it and is encredibly sad.



    Beautiful and Dark | Reviewer: Tristan | 5/27/2008

    I heard this song on Youtube whilst looking up other Natalie Merchant songs. It is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard, even though it is so dark. Talking about her failing relationship and her depression associated with that... so powerful. And when she finally gets the courage to leave him in the end, it is like he is dead to her... Truly one of the greatest songs of all time.



    Beautiful song. | Reviewer: Bex | 4/11/2008

    I also watched this on a Snape/Lily video and was saddened to find Youtube had now deleted the video for some reason.

    I thought that deleting it was harsh as it was such a waste of an amazing video and the song is beautfiful.

    I love the lyrics, they're so true to many and people and her voice is excellent, its rather powerful and yet soft at the same time. She sounds quite bitter but it gives the song the perfect effect.



    my skin | Reviewer: Veronica.holm | 1/16/2008

    love this song...! maybe its about live but i think it describes anorexia... ive had it for over 2 years and the text describes how it feels... once again love it!



    dyingflower... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/29/2007

    helloo, the first time i listened this song i was 16... i love it... now i'm 25 and it stills one of my favorites songs... and my love life it's now sad as the song... so much i like it that my email adress and the most of my nicks i've been using this almost 10 years has the dyingflower words... :D



    that was beautiful | Reviewer: anonymous | 11/10/2007

    I heard this song as a background song for a video, and I couldn't believe how beautiful it was. It really got to me.



    Untouchable | Reviewer: Untouchable | 10/6/2007

    This song has more meaning behind it than the obvious. After 32 years with the Love of My Life, I have become untouchable! I love this song and was shocked when I found it. How could one feel this way and not feel bittersweet, for the love she had and the love she is loosing! It has been 4 years since the sweetness was here but the promises continue to be spoken. Where will we end?



    Beautiful | Reviewer: Marina | 9/13/2007

    It's such an awesome song, I too listened to it in a Snape/Lily video, It brought me to tears.



    My Skin Reveiw | Reviewer: Kelsey | 8/20/2007

    I really really love this. I heard it on Youtube for a video of the Snape and Lily relationship(Harry Potter&Deathly Hollows just came out) Its absoultely beautiful and it makes me tear up everytime I listen to it.



    my skin | Reviewer: denise | 8/4/2007

    This song is, i agree, so very beautiful. I first heard it as a backgroundtrack in a video and i searched for ages to find the song. I love it and i think natalie merchant has wonderful, clean sweet girl next door look going for her, which only makes me love the song more coz it makes me think of innocence. Dono if tht makes sense but yeah, it's wonderful.
