2nd Skin - Jesus On Extasy

One cold evening

The world stood still

I watched as I held my breath

A silhouette I thought I knew

Came through

Someone spoke to me

Whispered in my ear

This fantasy’s for you

Fantasies are real this year

My whole life flashed before my eyes

I thought what they say is true

I shed my skin and my disguise

And cold, numb and naked I emerged from my cocoon

And a half-remembered tune

Played softly in my head

It said

(spoken)

Lessons known

We dare expect from anything as arbitrary as life

And the truth is simply that it’s over

I realise this miracle is due

I dedicate this melody to you

I realise this miracle is due

I dedicate this melody to you

But is this the stuff dreams I’m made of?

If this is the stuff dreams I’m made of

No wonder I feel like I’m floating on air

No wonder I feel like I’m floating on air

I realise this miracle is due

I dedicate this melody to you

I realise this miracle is due

I dedicate this melody to you

But is this the stuff dreams I’m made of?

If this is the stuff dreams I’m made of

No wonder I feel like I’m floating on air

No wonder I feel like I’m floating on air

And I realise this miracle is due

I dedicate this melody to you

But is this the stuff dreams I’m made of?

If this is the stuff dreams I’m made of

No wonder I feel like I’m floating on air

No wonder I feel like I’m floating on air

Oh it feels like I’m everywhere

Oh it feels like I’m everywhere

It’s just my second skin
