Official Music Video dir. Takashi Ito | Crispy Skin adapts Takashi Ito's award-winning experimental short film Zone (1995)
"A film about a man without a face. His arms and legs bound with ropes, still without even a quiver in a white room. This man, enwrapped in wild delusions, is also a reconstruction of myself. A series of unusual scenes in this room that expresses what lies inside me. I tried to create a connection between memories, nightmares and violent images." - Takashi Ito

*Lyrics*
We call it
Something else
To disguise
Our memory
Do you recall?
The carpet shops?
Those little books
That help you make decisions
Am I the bad one?
Yep, yes I am
I couldn’t eat
Another thing
No more pages and pages of crispy skin
Am I the bad one?
Yep, yes I am
Thought it could change me, well here I am
Am I the bad one?
Yep, yes I am
Thought it could change me, well here I am
All those words
That i read
Do nothing
How I think
Selfishly
Crispy skin
Hit them once
Not again
Wide eyed
My first day
Your first day
How we’ve changed
I don’t wince
While i read
Tucked in bed
Whats wrong with me?
We keep them underground
We keep them on our page
We love their crispy skin
‘Cos it’s something that we crave
We keep them round the back
And we keep them on our page
We love their crispy skin
‘Cos it’s something that we crave
One hit right between eyes
It’s become so easy that’s no surprise
One hit right between the eyes
It’s become so easy to take a life
Am I the bad one?
Yeah, yes i am
Thought it could change me
Well here I am
Well here I am
Well here I am
All those words
That I read
Do nothing
How i think
The blood drips drips faster than you can think
The blood drips drips faster than you can think
