In a whirlwind of self-reflection and societal critique, "Cynical Skin" delves into the dark corners of human psyche and social pressures. The lyrics paint vivid portraits of individuals grappling with their identities amidst external expectations. With 'exhibit A' and 'exhibit B', the song showcases characters trapped by materialism and image obsession, symbolizing broader cultural maladies. The haunting repetition of being "six feet below the ground" metaphorically suggests how deeply buried personal issues can lead to a life unexplored and unresolved. This track is a bold confrontation of the masks we wear and the internal chaos they hide, urging listeners to break free from societal shackles and embrace genuine self-discovery.
Cynical Skin
Lyrics
Talk candy in my ear
Come on
Come on
I want your toxic, talk sick baby
I know those gospel lips can change me
Look to the right of my okay?
We got exhibit "A"
She
She ain't okay today
And to the left
The left of me,
We got exhibit B"
Oh she's a mess,
To say the least.
She's got her daddy's
Money money money
Honey I think you should run
I think you should run
Look oh look around, you're lost
But never found, no
Six feet below the ground,
Where you avoid your problems
Look right in front of me
We got exhibit "C"
Anorexic, obsessed with magazines
And when I look over here,
Oh my god that's me in the mirror
No no no ladies and gentlemen
This is my fear
My eyes and ears
Honey I think you should run
I think you should run
Look oh look around, you're lost
But never found, no
Six feet below the ground,
Where you avoid your problems
Look oh look around, you're lost
But never found, no
Six feet below the ground,
Where you will never solve them
(I know you don't wanna hear this but just listen)
The last contendant
Bad for us
Bad for you
This capillary root
Could root up
All the little
Puzzle peices
Of what you've been through
Your hair all up in knots,
Don't ever say you're not,
Oh just a nothin'
'Cause I swear downstairs you're somethin'
Egotistic, cynical
I'm gettin'
Out of control
Out of control
Out of control
Look oh look around, you're lost
But never found, no.
Six feet below the ground,
Where you avoid your problems.
Look oh look around, you're lost
But never found, no
Six feet below the ground,
Where you will never solve them
Out of control
I've got control
