Skinwalker

[Intro]
[low drones, distant growls]
Footprints in the drywall
Ash on the doorframe
Breath in the keyhole
(It’s already in my name)
[Verse 1]
Twitch in the mirror
My jaw don’t fit my face
Eyes blink out of order
Heart crawls out my chest, slow pace
Neighborhood whispers
“Something walks in his skin”
I laugh but my teeth feel borrowed
Like I’m renting this body I’m in
[Chorus]
Skinwalker
Hear the steps in the hallway (thud, thud)
Something wears me the wrong way
I’m a stranger in my own veins
Skinwalker
Every shadow got my outline
But the voice in my throat ain’t mine
And it’s dragging me down, insane
[Verse 2]
Pavement remembers
Every print I never made
Claw marks in the carpet
Stare back, call me by my old name
I talk in a tongue that tastes
Like rust and burning sage
Mom says “son, you’re pale”
But it’s just the thing turning the page
[Pre-Chorus]
Close my eyes
I still see more
Hands on the ceiling
Crawling toward the floor
Who’s in control
Who’s really sore
I knock from inside
It bolts the door
[Chorus]
Skinwalker
Hear the steps in the hallway (thud, thud)
Something wears me the wrong way
I’m a stranger in my own veins
Skinwalker
Every shadow got my outline
But the voice in my throat ain’t mine
And it’s dragging me down, insane
[Bridge]
[beat drops to half-time, distorted growls under vocal]
Left foot, right foot
March to the pit (hey!)
My face on the mask
But it don’t quite fit
If I shed this flesh
Will it crawl back home
Or stalk these streets
On its own, on its own
[Chorus]
Skinwalker
Hear the steps in the hallway (thud, thud)
Something wears me the wrong way
I’m a stranger in my own veins
Skinwalker
Every shadow got my outline
But the voice in my throat ain’t mine
And it’s dragging me down, insane
[Outro]
[footsteps circling, layered growls rising]
Step… step…
Silence… then two more
Whatever walks in my body
Just locked every door
