You think I mean it
As if I seek it
When my words come out all wrong
And you’re hanging up the phone
I know they believe it
But I keep it secret
That I just ain’t half as strong
Guess it’s hard to look beyond
Gotten pretty good at choking up inside
Say I’m cold but that’s just cause my fire’s confined
Every time we’re going down that road I hide
So you won’t see me cry...
Truth is that I wish my skin was thicker
Struggle as my ego can’t get bigger
My pride keeps saying “don’t you be a quitter”
But I’m fighting myself till I’ve won
I guess I wanna paint that perfect picture
Pain can’t be reflected in the mirror
My pride keeps saying “don’t you be a quitter”
Like the ice that we’re walking upon
My skin is thin
If you’ll be my lover
Then pick up the shovel
And start digging up the dirt
Wanna show you where it hurts
Gotten pretty good at choking up inside
Say I’m cold but that’s just cause my fire’s confined
Every time we’re going down that road I hide
So you won’t see me cry...
Truth is that I wish my skin was thicker
Struggle as my ego can’t get bigger
My pride keeps saying “don’t you be a quitter”
But I’m fighting myself till I’ve won
I guess I wanna paint that perfect picture
Pain can’t be reflected in the mirror
My pride keeps saying “don’t you be a quitter”
Like the ice that we’re walking upon
My skin is thin
Ta dum, ta dum
Thin
Ta dum, ta dum
My skin is thin
Ta dum, ta dum
Like the ice that we’re walking upon
Eaten alive
So take it easy
Don’t wanna live in a lie
So you should know
Truth is that I wish my skin was thicker
Struggle as my ego can’t get bigger
My pride keeps saying “don’t you be a quitter”
But I’m fighting myself till I’ve won
I guess I wanna paint that perfect picture
Pain can’t be reflected in the mirror
My pride keeps saying “don’t you be a quitter”
Like the ice that we’re walking upon
My skin is thin
Ta dum, ta dum
Thin
Ta dum, ta dum
My skin is thin
Ta dum, ta dum
Like the ice that we’re walking upon
My skin is thin
