Second Skin 03:17
burning my candle your light won’t shine in can’t see through the darkness I feel like giving in craving your touch don’t know where you’ve been crawling upon me just like a second skin a second skin my second skin nothing’s happening you’re not there to be seen why won’t you save me from my losing scheme looking for reasons for what I’ve been in searching for life signs inside my second skin a second skin my second skin just like a second skin my second skin don’t know when to stop don’t know where to begin I feel like giving in

we’ve been forsaking our fate our time has come just too late I’m the one who waits wait for you to come back Long gone but still I’m yearning false hope for your returning I’m the one who waits wait for you to come back I’m the one who waits in a wasteland wait for you to come back come back!

Paralysed 03:09
I'm paralysed I just can't help the way I feel I can only say dumb things every time you are near it's a condition that I can't escape at all I'm trying to stand up but all I do is fall all I do is fall I'm hypnotized I can't control the things I do I know I feel this way just because of you you roll your eyes I don't know just what to say I came to hate myself just like I hate this place all I do is fall They tell me what they want tell me what they want I do a little bit of this a little bit of that I’m paralysed can't cope this time It’s gonna break me I just can’t shake it I’m paralysed just hypnotized I'm hypnotized I can't control the things I do I know I feel this way just because of you you keep your distance I don't know just what to say I can't seem to have it any other way They tell me what they want tell me what they want I do a little bit of this a little bit of that I'm paralyzed I can’t disguise the way you break me I just won’t make it I’m paralyzed it keeps dragging me away all the time when I wanna stay
11.
our love got tired and now it smells like a burning tyre your childlike smile through my skin like a frozen knife what you require it can’t be reached unless you cut your wires you call it friendly fire but I know and I won’t be lying and now how can I trick my fate? who’s gonna catch my fall? I’m down I know it’s much too late I’ll never meet you again I know in time you’re gonna look for what you left behind the deaf lead the blind I don’t think it’s gonna work out fine come rain or shine I’ll disappear and you won’t be crying you met your partner in crime and you get on like a house on fire and now how can I trick my fate? who’s gonna catch my fall? I’m down I know it’s much too late I’ll never meet you again I’ll never see you again
12.
what can I say to save my life? I crash and burn night after night what can I do to kill the blues? I’ve ripped and torn every sign of you will I no longer feel regret? I wish someone could answer that time has never been a cure everything just got obscure ain’t it cool to feel no shame for things you’ve done again and again? nobody said I’m always right I wonder how you sleep at night guess you’re doing just alright someone else has paid the price it’s pain pain! what can I say to save my life? I crash and burn night after night what can I do to kill the blues? I’ve ripped and torn every sign of you nobody said I’m always right I wonder how you sleep at night guess you’re doing just alright someone else has paid the price for you! It’s pain pain!

about

“20 Years on the Wrong Side of the Road”

“Second Skin” is the new album by CUT and their sixth studio full length since the beginnings of the band in 1996. The album is being released on February 20 2017 by Dischi Bervisti, Area Pirata, Cut’s own Bare Bones Productions and Liverpool’s Antipop Records for the UK territory.
The record will feature many Italian and international guests: among them there’s Mike Watt from Iggy & The Stooges, Minutemen, Il Sogno del Marinaio and many others lending his bass sound to one track. This release is celebrating more than twenty years of uncompromising musical activity for the Bologna band and their concoction of garage rock, punk, noise and post punk. In February CUT will showcase the album with a short tour of the UK and in the Spring the band will tour Germany, Belgium and France. Be there!
