CRYSTAL 1, 3 © Hellriegel 1988 2 © Hellriegel 1989 1. As I Am In Skin When you walk into the room I know it’s time to shed my skin Who could like such skin as this, in all of it’s imperfection To hear it in your heart To see it as it’s seen To know yourself the way it should be And never change a thing. When I’m in your room. To shade the light a subtle hue Hides the face of all desire Compress thy lungs in times of need So that you can’t be heard So you can’t be heard And it’s a dream, and it’s a dream That you could like me as I am in skin. In skin In skin And it’s criminal That you should want to make me feel like her And it’s criminal That you could make me feel so insecure All of the time.. All of the time.... When you’re in my room. 2. Your Estimation Does anybody else get caught up in a vacuum. Spinning along just bouncing off the walls You may think that you have got a choice in the matter You really got no choices at all Oh but I don’t want to face this one alone But it looks like I will I’m tired of being told what I’m supposed to be doing Super media always makes it rather plain They say "Go ahead, indulge yourself" They never said that it could kill somebody And I, I go down in your estimation And I’m sorry because I go down in my estimation too. If only you would stay (Lets hide our heads in the sand) And never leave (You and I could live forever) But I forgot ( There would be nothing to worry about) You’ve already gone (There would be nothing) Please Stay Please Stay The world wasn’t big enough for one friend of mine Come to think of it it’s not big enough for plenty Say good-bye to that poor misshapen soul of his It was fouled so much he finally had to shed it. Oh and I, I go down in your estimation And I’m sorry I go down in my estimation too. Repeat Repeat..... 3. Crystal calm (before the storm) You take the weight off my shoulders and break my back in two more places And I ride the crest of a wave in to nothing Nothing at all If there was a ship then I'd be on it now and I wouldn't say no And I wouldn’t be afraid I’d ride with the black crystal We’d be safe and strong Like the calm before the storm Like the calm before the storm I’d ride the rest of eternity Searching for nothing but the knowledge of the truth And I will see into the dark, into light into nothing, nothing at all Like the calm before the storm Like the calm before the storm And you, you take the weight off my shoulders And break my back in two I forgot to mention This shouldn’t happen to you. If there was a ship then I'd be on it now and I wouldn't say no And I wouldn't be afraid I’d ride with the black crystal We’d be soft and strong. Like the calm before the storm Like the calm before the storm
