With the release of SKIN OF MY TEETH on June 10, 2022, Demi Lovato began a new rock era in her career. The song became the lead single of her 8th studio album "HOLY FVCK".
In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine in February 2022, she said that this new sound will be reminiscent of the "heaviness" of her first albums Don't Forget and Here We Go Again. She explained, “When I say heaviness, I don’t mean lyrically, but heaviness in some sound that I haven’t done before, and it’s exciting. This is a new era, reminiscent of my first era. [... ] I am constantly evolving, constantly changing. I'd like to leave the rest of my music behind and start fresh in this new era for the next album - but I do that on every album cycle."
Demi describes "SKIN OF MY TEETH" as "an anthem for people who are struggling with addiction."

Demi leaves rehab again
When is this shit gonna end
Sounds like the voice in my head
I can't believe I'm not dead
I'm alive by the skin of my teeth
I survived but it got harder to breathe
Asking why doesn't make it easier
Go easier on me
God damn it I just wanna be free
But I can't 'cause it's a fucking disease
I'm alive by the skin of my
The reaper knocks on my door
Cause I'm addicted to more
I don't need you to keep score
When I'm the one who's at war
I'm alive by the skin of my teeth
I survived but it got harder to breathe
Asking why doesn't make it easier
Go easier on me
God damn it I just wanna be free
But I can't 'cause it's a fucking disease
I'm alive by the skin of my
I'm just trying to keep my head above water
I'm your son and I'm your daughter
I'm your mother, I'm your father
I'm just a product of the problem
I'm just trying to keep my head above water
I'm your son and I'm your daughter
I'm your mother, I'm your father
I'm alive
I'm alive by the skin of my teeth
Won't you try and have some mercy on me
Asking why doesn't make it easier
Go easier on me
God damn it, I just wanna be free
But I can't 'cause it's a fucking disease
I'm alive by the skin of my
(I, I'm alive by)
(By the skin of my teeth)
