Lyrics
[verse]
Woke up on the sidewalk, don't know how I got there
Papers in the gutter and the neon in my hair
Stumbled through the city like a stranger to my name
Trying to remember why I'm playing this same game
[verse]
A voice in the alley said "you look kinda lost"
I laughed and said "don't we all, no matter what it cost"
The city lights are spinning and I can't find the ground
Just trying to figure out where my own self is found
[chorus]
Who are you now, underneath the skin
Who are you now, when the night closes in
Who are you now, tell me what's inside
Who are you now, when there's nowhere left to hide
[verse]
Every face I pass is a mirror turned around
Every stranger's question makes the same old sound
Maybe I've been running from a truth too hard to face
Maybe I'll find something if I slow my pace
[chorus]
Who are you now, underneath the skin
Who are you now, when the night closes in
Who are you now, tell me what's inside
Who are you now, when there's nowhere left to hide
[bridge]
Strip away the noise and the borrowed disguise
Strip away the answers written in other guys' eyes
Somewhere past the static there's a name that's mine
Gotta find it now before I run out of time
[chorus]
Who are you now, underneath the skin
Who are you now, when the night closes in
Who are you now, tell me what's inside
Who are you now, when there's nowhere left to hide
