UNDER THE NIGHT SKIN

Verse 1

I walk into the night
like I’ve done this war before.
Silence follows every step,
shadows open up their doors.
But then I see you standing there,
unshaken by my storm,
like you can read the part of me
the world could never hold.

Pre-Chorus

You don’t look away —
you look through me.
Like you’re searching for the fire
I keep buried underneath.

Chorus

’Cause you feel me
under the night skin,
even when I say nothing.
And I feel you
burning steady —
a flame that won’t bow to my shadow.
You don’t run,
you don’t tremble —
you just stand,
like the only one who sees the warrior
not the myth around him.

Verse 2

My strength doesn’t scream —
it speaks in quiet steel.
Most people break beneath that weight,
but you… you never yield.
You walk toward the darker rooms
where others lose their breath,
like you want to know the version
of me I’ve never shown the rest.

Pre-Chorus

Your steps are calm,
but your presence cuts like truth.
And truth is something
only the brave walk into.

Chorus

’Cause you feel me
under the night skin,
even when I say nothing.
And I feel you
burning steady —
a flame that won’t bow to my shadow.
You don’t run,
you don’t tremble —
you just stand,
like the only one who sees the warrior
not the myth around him.

Bridge (slow, low voice)

I’m not looking for surrender.
I’m looking for honesty.
And you stand before me
unbroken,
fearless,
like someone who knows
their fire matches mine.

Final Chorus

Yeah, you feel me
under the night skin —
deep enough to wake the battle I’ve been hiding.
And I feel you
like a spark on iron,
a force the darkness can’t contain.
Two shadows,
two rhythms,
one night learning our names.
You’re the flame,
I’m the steel —
and nothing in this night
breaks that.
