Second Skin (AI Melodic Metal Music)

An original nu-metal/electronic rock crossover exploring what it means to lose yourself for someone else… and the painful journey of reclaiming who you really are.

This track blends emotional rap-rock verses, soaring melodic choruses, and dual male/female vocals that cut deep. It’s about the “second skin” we build to survive in love, in trauma, in silence — and the moment we finally rip it off.

Second Skin
===================================

"It’s not me…
But I still wear it like it’s mine…"

I stitched a mask from your expectations
Wore it proud like a uniform
Forgot the sound of my own heartbeat
Drowned it out in every storm
I played the part you painted
Until the lines cut into bone
Now I’m staring at a stranger
In a body I don’t own

This isn’t who I meant to be
But it’s the only face they see…

This second skin won’t come off clean
It’s buried deep inside of me
I built it just to keep your peace
Now I can’t find what’s underneath
You loved the lie I tried to live
But never touched the truth I hid
Now every breath just rubs it in—
I’m trapped inside...
This second skin

I bled in silence to keep you whole
Cut away parts I used to know
You never asked, but I still folded
Just to keep you from letting go
Now I walk like I’m still yours
But there’s nothing left to give
I became the version you could love
But forgot how to forgive

This isn’t what I’m meant to be
But it’s all that’s left of me...

This second skin won’t come off clean
It’s buried deep inside of me
I built it just to keep your peace
Now I can’t find what’s underneath
You loved the lie I tried to live
But never touched the truth I hid
Now every breath just rubs it in—
I’m trapped inside...
This second skin

Tear it off! Tear it out!
I’d rather bleed than wear this doubt
But the scars you gave still fit too well…
I was never yours to remake—
Now I’ll shatter just to escape!

This second skin won’t come off clean
It’s buried deep inside of me
I built it just to keep your peace
Now I can’t find what’s underneath
You loved the lie I tried to live
But never touched the truth I hid
Now every breath just rubs it in—
I’m done with you
And this second skin...

This second skin was never me
Just scars you wrapped around my grief
I wore it just to make you stay
But lost myself along the way
You loved control, you feared the real
So I became what I could kill
But now I rise from deep within—
And tear away...
This second skin

Ohhhhhhhhhh

This second skin
