B E R N E - press release



LOST MY SKIN - Out October 10

For fans of: London Grammar, Art School Girlfriend, The xx, RY X and Björk



Fresh from their performance at The National Gallery, Berne release Lost My Skin on October 10, 2024 - a creative expression of the eco-anxiety and burnout of living in a world where climate and social justice are not the priority. It presents an underlying atmosphere of frustration and hopelessness for the future, while knowing that we’re not in this alone. Lost My Skin is accompanied by a DIY music video filmed on iPhone.

 

Lost My Skin is the fourth track from debut album 789 out October 31, following Language, Waves, and You Never Get Enough. 789 is inspired by how we as humans interact with the planet, animals, and each other. All tracks are co-written with The Earth via EarthPercent.


Berne is recognised as EU Climate Pact Ambassador for Malta. Berne explain: “Lost My Skin is our full-circle track. It encapsulates the journey we went on while making this record over a couple of really difficult years for the world. There’s pain, there’s sadness, there’s hopelessness, there’s hiding; but we hope that knowing that none of us are alone in dealing with this eases the pain, the sadness, the hopelessness, the hiding. It was recorded in our studio, mixed by Mercury Prize winner and Music Producer’s Guild winner Shuta Shinoda, and mastered by Music Producer’s Guild Mastering Engineer of the Year 2023 Cicely Balston.”


“A duo addressing injustice through music and beyond.” BBC Introducing

 

“'Language' is a firm reminder of just how awe-inspiring they can be. Fresh and immersive at every turn, Berne already sound like they are entering the next phase within their musical evolution to date.” - Lock Magazine



LOST MY SKIN - lyrics

Lost my mind trying to stay alive

Gave it all that I could and then some more

I dream with my eyes shut burnt my heart out

Living in the shadow of tragedy

Yeah I'm falling

Yeah I'm falling down


Oh the outside is burning to the ground

On the inside, well no one's looking round

I curl up into a ball make myself small

Cowered from the critical strangers' eyes

Yeah I'm falling down


I worked so hard that I lost my skin

I've been so tired but I can't give in


I dream with my eyes shut burnt my heart out

Living in the shadow of tragedy


I cannot be the only one

Shedding my skin as I go on


I cannot be the only one

Shedding my skin as I go on

I cannot be the only one

Shedding my skin as I go on


I worked so hard that I lost my skin

I feel so tired but I can't give in
