Nudity, or nakedness, is the state of wearing no clothing. The wearing of clothing is a predominantly human characteristic arising from functional needs such as protection from the elements and from cold temperatures, after the loss of body hair, and migration to colder regions. The amount of clothing worn depends on functional considerations, such as a need for warmth, as well as social circumstances. In some situations, a minimum amount of clothing or none at all may be considered socially acceptable, while in others much more clothing may be expected. Social considerations involve issues of modesty, decency and social norms, besides other considerations, and these may depend on the context. There may also be legal considerations.
Full nudity refers to complete nudity, while partial nudity refers to less than full nudity, with parts of the body covered in some manner. The term partial nudity is sometimes used to refer to exposure of skin beyond what the person using the expression considers to be within the limits of modesty. If the exposure is within the standards of modesty of a given culture and setting (e.g. wearing a bikini at a non-nude beach), terms such as nudity, partial or otherwise, are not normally used. If however, the degree of exposure exceeds the cultural norms of the setting, or if the activity or setting includes nudity as an understood part of its function, such as a nude beach, terminology relating to nudity and degrees thereof are typically used. Toplessness is regarded by most people as partial nudity.
And they don't see
That my smile is thin
And it's peeling off
Inch by inch
When it goes
My whole disguise
Will slither off
Before your eyes
And I'll stand nude
My eyes roll out
Reveal my skull
A cave of doubt
My surgeries done
You gave the knife
I need you here to save my life
So please stay in tonight
Pull the soul from my eyes and say goodnight
Just stay at home strip me down to the bone
I can't be alone
And they don't see the nagging stress
That beats and beats inside my chest
And kiss my heart
To keep it safe
Where no one else can make it break
And all the schools they sent me to
The upper class ants march two by two
A 4.0 for each brave boy
Well I won't f**k with them anymore
And the days go by
I still believe
There is someone who
Can comfort me
And the days go by
