The third track of the initial songwriting sessions, this is where the sound deviated slightly from the first two songs. I enjoyed this song a lot more when recording it because I was particularly proud of the bass and the guitar. The vocals were practically all improvised and them touched up afterwards to make sure it all flowed properly-by touched up I mean I just had to go back and listen to make sure it wasn't a big jumbled mess.
lyrics
I had been waiting all of this time
I thought that maybe it would change, I
Sadly mistaken, I thought much too nice
Cause its the same different disappointment every time
Just a different skin it's in
Just a different skin it's in
Just a different skin it's in
Just a different skin.... it's in
(Main Chord Progression)
I thought the best and I gave you the benefit
Of my doubts, though I'm slightly regretting it
I know that this had been a turbulent time
The changes for both of us, in both of our lives
The disappointment is here again
Just a different skin it's in
The disappointment is here again
Only thing that's different is the skin... it's in
I never wanted to be hurt by you
but it seems to be the course
Of action that's likely to go through
Not your fault of course
Just a... victim of circumstance
Bad timing is all we can blame it on
Cause it's not on our hands
The disappointment's here again
Only difference is the skin it's in
The disappointment's here again
Only difference is the skin...
I've broken my heart
Enough in the past
I don't need something else to drag me down again
Feeling so deathly close to release
Want to just take it all
Throw it away at least
The disappointment is here again
Only difference is the skin it's in
The disappointment is here again
Only difference is the skin.. that it's in..
