Gaby DeSpain - Settle for Skin Deep

I've been watching shadows alone
On the walls inside my home
For once it's too silent
I feel the confinement
The walls are looking too thick
Loneliness is now throwing rocks
Restless, invading my thoughts
My patience is breaking
A body need waking
Screw it I gotta get out
Now I'm downtown, part of the crowd
Warm with whiskey, that I just downed
You say "let's get away"
I'm so lonely and tempted to play
I know I could choose to go drown in more booze
Have a cheap thrill and ignite
On fire with no heat
I settle for skin deep, skin deep, skin deep
I wake up with some heavy regret
It feels like the rare cigarette
I'm not addicted, it's nice for a little bit
But stale smoke gets me sick
Back to building up my safe wall
Don't give me your desperate call
Then the voices in my brain
Can no longer entertain
Screw it I gotta get out
Now I'm downtown, part of the crowd
Warm with whiskey, that I just downed
You say "let's get away"
I'm so lonely and tempted to play
I know I could choose to go drown in more booze
Have a cheap thrill and ignite
On fire with no heat
I settle for skin deep, skin deep, skin deep
Maybe tonight, maybe tonight
Maybe tonight this will feel right
Now I'm downtown, part of the crowd
Warm with whiskey, that I just downed
You say "let's get away"
I'm so lonely and tempted to play
I know I could choose to go drown in more booze
Have a cheap thrill and ignite
On fire with no heat
I settle for skin deep, skin, skin deep
