"Thicker Skin" lyrics

"Thicker Skin"

How far will you run to catch up with ambition?
And how long will you go before you lose control?
Oh, I don't want second best, put our heads to the test
We'll keep up with the rest
Beat 'til I'm black and blue, broken and bruised
I wanna get right through

Don't give in, this sun hasn't set yet

All I know we've come too far to just let go
Before too long, the sun will set on its own

How deep will you swim to reach the depths of reason?
And how dark will the waters get if you don't find it?
We learn to sink or swim, growing thicker skin
To keep the demons in
Whether you're wrong or right we all fall out of line
And get back up again

Don't give in, this sun hasn't set yet

All I know we've come too far to just let go
Before too long the sun will set on its own

Growing thicker skin than what you've been living in, oh woah

Don't give in, this sun hasn't set yet

All I know we've come too far to just let go
Before too long the sun will set on its own, yeah

All I know we've come too far to just let go
Before too long the sun will set on its own
