Once you've been bitten you get a little bit shy
Start looking round for anyplace that you can hide
Once you've been naked you get a thick, thick skin
Build it up layer by layer and you climb on in

Then you're wrapped up oh, so tightly, I don't think you feel a thing
No sting of snowflakes, no kiss of angel's wings
And maybe you don't need that skin anymore
Maybe if you took it off you would not have to breathe
Maybe air would just flow in and out of you as it pleased, as it pleased

Look at all the heaviness, the weight in this world
Put and old lady backbone in a little baby girl
Left no room for no lover, left no trust in no friend
Just a little voice saying never, never, never again

But if there's no such thing as safety, if there ain't no guarantee
Maybe the coast is just as clear as it is ever gonna be
Maybe you don't need that skin anymore
Maybe if you took it off you would not have to breathe
Maybe air would just flow in and out of you as it pleased, as it pleased

Like a summer breeze, don't you want to feel the breeze?
Don't you want to feel it now, sweet summer breeze?
