wayside (band) - paper thin lyrics
[chorus]
there’s javelins flyn’ through the air we breathe
i catch ’em in my ribcage, oh
the blood runs over ’cause in the end
my skin, my skin is paper thin
there’s javelins flyn’ through the air we breathe
i catch ’em in my ribcage, oh
the blood runs over ’cause in the end
my skin, my skin is paper thin
[verse 1]
we live in a world where they say that you gotta have thick, thick skin
and we’re laughed at for standn’ out so we try hard to just fit in, to just fit in
and that’s just it
’cause when you’re you they tell you, “go be somebody else”
then they say, “don’t change”
so i stayed the same and still get mocked every day
just for being myself
[verse 2]
i’ve had enough of it
i’m so done with it
people hurln’ insults for the fun of it
what’s that?
and sure i can handle some of it
but now and then i’ll hear something that i can’t stomach
and when this song drops they’ll probably be like
“god, scott, you need to man up”
but i’ve taken shots and i’ve been put down
now i’m finally standn’ up
yeah
[chorus]
there’s javelins flyn’ through the air we breathe
i catch ’em in my ribcage, oh
the blood runs over ’cause in the end
my skin, my skin is paper thin
there’s javelins flyn’ through the air we breathe
i catch ’em in my ribcage, oh
the blood runs over ’cause in the end
my skin, my skin is paper thin
[verse 3]
and i’ve opened myself up for lots of hate
’cause every song i’ve dropped is like an open forum
in the comments people go and debate
like, “i don’t think he’ll make it”
“yo this song is basic”
everybody always got something to say
and now what i’ve basically done open myself up
and put my life in a song and my soul on a plate
[verse 4]
that’s so dangerous
’cause they aim at us
and take shots tryn’ to take us down
and now i’m swimn’ through an ocean of insults
feeln’ like i’ve been left out to drown
keep my eyes closed
give up on my life goals
’cause seen’ all of this is bad for my health
and now i’m on my knees
sayn’, “help me please”
i can’t do this by myself
[chorus]
there’s javelins flyn’ through the air we breathe
i catch ’em in my ribcage, oh
the blood runs over ’cause in the end
my skin, my skin is paper thin
there’s javelins flyn’ through the air we breathe
i catch ’em in my ribcage, oh
the blood runs over ’cause in the end
my skin, my skin is paper thin
