[Verse 1]
I lost my attention for a second, maybe, listen
Don't question, you're the reason I mentioned it
Keep it coming, you got something
Big boy, tough, you're nothing
This don't hurt, oh, I'm done with it
[Pre-Chorus]
High
Boy, I'm in the pink
Sleep without a wink
And my blood, and my blood goes
High
Boy, you're on the brink
Tell me how to think
You really think I listen
[Chorus]
I gotta live with that thick skin
You try to cut deep or you'd sin
You can't get it right, no matter how you tried to run my life
Cut me with the plastic knife
I gotta live with that thick skin
You try to cut deep or you'd sin
You can't get it right, no matter how you tried to run my life
Cut me with the plastic knife
[Verse 2]
I give my commitment for a minute, you were in it
I'm quittin', you'll be wishin' you got it right
Words that you been throwin' hit me hard or we'll focus it
Down now I know that you're out my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
High
Boy, I'm in the pink
Sleep without a wink
And my blood, and my blood goes
High
Boy, you're on the brink
Tell me how to think
You really think I listen
[Chorus]
I gotta live with that thick skin
You try to cut deep or you'd sin
You can't get it right, no matter how you tried to run my life
Cut me with the plastic knife
I gotta live with that thick skin
You try to cut deep or you'd sin
You can't get it right, no matter how you tried to run my life
Cut me with the plastic knife
[Bridge]
Once, just one
Tell me something nice
Oh, tell me that I'm beautiful
Love, a little love
Feel I've nothing left to give
[Chorus]
I gotta live with that thick skin
You try to cut deep or you'd sin
You can't get it right, no matter how you tried to run my life
Cut me with the plastic knife
I gotta live with that thick skin
You try to cut deep or you'd sin
You can't get it right, no matter how you tried to run my knife
Cut me with the plastic knife
