Thick Skin

Let's say we started And the first words out our mouths never parted From the tongues that bled into the deepest darkness, discarded The webs across my walls that I kept guarded Am I still sane And let's say we grew up In a house that's full of holes where no one knew us With a garden by the porch where we could bloom love From the seeds of worried men, we stood up Am I still sane Cause we grew slow Never to know If we could ever be set free from this disease The lies we're told With our eyes closed You see it's wounds within our heads from which we bleed I'm not alone I'm not alone Let's say we fell through And the embers of addiction altered our view Of a world so black and white, we seen new hues And the words slurred out our mouths could only be truth Am I still sane Cause we grew slow Never to know If we could ever be set free from this disease The lies we're told With our eyes closed You see it's wounds within our heads from which we bleed I'm not alone I'm not alone Spread thin Knives are coming out of my thick skin Wolves are at the door I'm not listening Cutting out the cause that runs my life Spread thin Knives are coming out of my thick skin Wolves are at the door I'm not listening Cutting out the cause that runs my life Cause we grew slow Never to know If we could ever be set free from this disease The lies we're told With our eyes closed You see it's wounds within our heads from which we bleed I'm not alone (I'm not alone) I'm not alone (I'm not alone) I'm not alone (I'm not alone) I'm not alone
