Hart, Beth - Skin Lyrics
She combs her hair and cleans her face
Closes the door and kneels to pray
It don't matter that she's alone
Beast or dragons she's going home
Bow my head unto the ground
Would you heal my skin
And these blisters within my skin
She found today so hard to say
I sweat the sheets too tired to play
And it don't matter 'cause I'm still alive
Beast or dragons won't make me hide
If I lay me down
Would you heal my skin
And these blisters within my skin
Another way
I just can't find the words to say
Cold where I lay
It's cold where I lay
Bones cracked to clay
A killer's in the way
Hot is my shame
Fire pulls my veins
For never is my name
Forever in my shame
Holy come heal me
Solely delivery delivery
If I lay me down
Bow my head unto the ground
Would you heal my skin
And these blisters within
If I lay me down
Bow my head unto the ground
Would you heal my skin
And these blisters within
Blisters within my skin

Hart, Beth Skin Comments
f#cking wow!!!!!!!
Beth Hart has touched my very soul as a woman as an addict as a lonely , pained woman whose dreams never quite manifested. Every one of her songs cuts straight to the bone. She had gone under appreciated as an artist for far too long. By far the very best musician in the world. No fake bullshit with this lady.
Beth at the piano no one better would love to see you live!
Who Dat Dad N.O.
Fantastic song
She was so skinny then. Glad she's looking much healthier now. Can't wait to see her live this week in Chicago!
I absolutely love this beautiful, soulful, pain laden, thriving through the darkness, with her light enforced voice.... WOMAN!
💛 😀 Wow 👍 beautiful song
musical perfection … love it
Your amazing
She gave up her addiction. Now she's mine!
LOVE..!!!
Yes, indeed, there's a little bit of JJ in BH, and that is a great compliment in itself. But she is unique. She does everything: She plays well, sings well, and can do a lot of things with her voice and in numerous genres. She is no doubt the best all-around singer/songwriter/entertainer I've ever seen.
She doesn't sing polytonals as JJ did, and she doesn't have her passion. She doesn't try to have nor does she need a pure voice as Karen Carpenter had, but she is a package that neither of those angels could complete. Karen sang low soprano at all times in all songs, due to her brother's wise advice that, "The money is in the basement of each level." Beth sings all over the place, and does it very well at each level.
For the few of you who have never heard the purring beauty of KC's majestical voice:
“Close to You,” Karen Carpenter, 1970
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaOyoVS-IAI
JJ's passion overrode anything else she did, and she had the ability to innovate words and phrases on stage. A genius at what she did, and she left a legacy that has lasted. Ck JJ out here. A hundred people have done this song, and no one comes close:
"Summertime," by Janis Joplin live, 1969 (4:40)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bn5TNqjuHiU
BH is an all-around genius, as no one else has ever been. Tori Amos came close at first, but faltered in her later works, because of bad producers. Like Elvis, BH doesn't need a producer. She can do everything as well as it can be done and needs no editing, as it were.
What a blessing to hear here play and sing!! Thank you, Beth!!
elizabeth made me like it!!!
I hate addition I've been there got the t shirt clean 25 yrs now Paul p Birmingham England x x x x x ☺❤💚 god bless this women

Wow what an awesome piano. Beth you are so talented xx
Thank you for putting this up. Definitely one of my favorite Beth songs 👍
"Our pain becomes our passion," someone told me that once. I never really understood it until later in life. This is one of the most raw, vulnerable, honest, open and beautiful songs I have ever heard, I thought in one of the other videos that this was written before Sharon transitioned to her new life, free of pain. I just wondered if she heard it here. I know she hears it now. So very beautiful 💕
Belissima. Muito Bom all t best,Beth.
U bet
Sublime x
What a talent .
Awesome. She got better with age. What comes after awesome?
Gives me shivers.......glad she is clean......much much more to come.
Over 21,000 views and less than 300 likes? That's crazy
well not really. I liked it once, listened to it about 100 times :-)
Love Beth.Wish she'd stop smoking,risking everything.
Just an amazing epic performance. It would be hard pressed to compare it to anyone. 11 out of 10 stars
Love her piano...
What a stupid remark...when you hear her voice...
What year was this video produced? I know the song recorded in 1999. That's when I first followed Beth! Amazing artist! Thanks! I watch this video often!
How does an artist turn pain into incredible beauty? Very few people can do it, but Beth knows how. Her soul cries out! This isn't just a song; it's a spiritual experience. My tears flow as I feel her pain and its expressive beauty. This is pure genius!

WOW I have been in desperate search for live versions of this song ever since I stumbled across Beth Hart's music not too long ago and now you're serving this acoustic version. What a wonderful deed to the public, thank you so much for sharing this
