Skin

Deep in the core of a broken one, I spy the light of a wounded sun
That keeps you from drowning, keeps you from drowning
Way beneath the weak surface of it all, I spy a girl only three foot tall
That keeps me from drowning; she keeps me from drowning
In it all, with a will to stay and a will to stand still
We break the rules and listen to our own skin
With a visible scar in our broken sidecar
We break the rules and listen to our own skin
We break our hearts and pretty much everything
After the dark and endless wars, I realise that I'm fighting a cause
That ends with us drowning, ends with us drowning
In it all, with a will to stay and a will to stand still
We break the rules and listen to our own skin
With a visible scar in our broken sidecar
We break the rules and listen to our own skin
We break our hearts and pretty much everything
We're the same old star in the same old sign
I bid to keep us both in the same old line
But when the present tense meets the present time
We bid to keep our worlds in line
We break the rules and listen to our own skin
We break our hearts and pretty much everything
