Gretchen sneaking out of the house. Dark moment beautifully enhanced by this deep song. Perfect for each other

[sarahmather]

Youre the worst brought me here, and i found this song in January a few weeks before i turn 33 ❤❤

[HeyManNceShot]

[Verse 1]
Lay off me would ya
I'm just tryin to take this new skin for a spin
Pray for me would ya
I'm just nervous bout my family filing in
Ready to wrap me up
Ready to love me In this new skin I'm fillin in

[Chorus]
Who's that trying to speak for me?
What is it that they claim to be?
A child of God much like yourself
You will find me right where I fell

[Verse 2]
I am a tired woman
In January I will just be twenty three
In Kansas City I was undressed and bested by an airtight floor
Then it said, "By the power in me vested"
And wrapped me in this new skin I'm dyin for

[Chorus]
Who's that trying to speak for me?
What kind of Love do they claim to be?
A child of God much like yourself
You'll still find me right where I fell

Who's that trying to speak for me?
What kind of love do they claim to be?
A child of God much like yourself
You'll still find me right where I fell

[Outro]
The darkness fears
What darkness knows
But if you've never known the darkness
Then you're the one who fears the most

The darkness fears
What darkness knows
But if you've never known the darkness
Then you're the one who fears the most

The darkness fears
What darkness knows
But if you've never known the darkness
Then you're the one who fears the most
But if you do not know the darkness
Then you're the one who fears the most
But if you do not know the darkness
Then you're the one I fear the most

[abbbbynoelle]

my insomnia is gnawing at me tonight. I was hooked by the second verse. I turned 23 in January of this year (2018)

[alexisw]

Tegan and Sara brought me here. Once again they didn't disappoint. Who's with me?

[cardgamefool]

Unwittingly listening to this song in January at the age of 23. Kinda creepy. Solid tune nonetheless.

[jacquesswart]

Unwittingly listening to this song in August at the ripe age of 30. Kinda creepy. Solid tune nonetheless.

[tannergariepy]

i came here because we're messing with the original stems for this track in our eq & compression labs in school and after listening to so much i just got hooked. its intresting to hesr the differnce on the mastered version. Alot clesning for sure as well and the tempo is a lot slower probably by like 20 bpm even

[zamadlamini]

Unwittingly listening to this song in July at the age of 22. Kinda creepy. Solid tune nonetheless.

[theordinarylifeofacat]

Oh Gretchen :( never related to a character so much

[lukebradley]

Unwittingly listening to this song in September at the age of 24. Kinda creepy. Solid tune nonetheless.

[TB--spwy]

Unwittingly listened to this while wearing my new skin. Soon creepy

[seluskooma]
