[Verse 1]
Thicker skin, I've got to get me some thicker skin
I've been too long in the skin I'm in
It's far too thin, it's wearing out
[Verse 2]
I'm made of dandelion fluff
Blow me over with just one puff
But down inside, there is stronger stuff
If I dig enough
I'll root it out
[Chorus]
Cause I bruise too easy
And I heal too slow
And I wish I didn't know half the things I know
But it's time to face the demons
And stop laying in the street
It's time to stand up on my own two feet
[Verse 3]
Stainless steel, I want a backbone of stainless steel
That holds, regardless of how I feel
It will not yield
It will not falter
[Chorus]
Cause I bruise too easy
And I heal too slow
And I wish I didn't know half the things I know
But it's time to face the demons
And stop laying in the street
It's time to stand up on my own two feet
[Bridge]
Ouooh
I could drown here in a pool of my own pity
Submerged in loathing and regret
Or I could grit my teeth and come up swinging
And see if there's some fight left in me yet
[Chorus]
Cause I bruise too easy
And I heal too slow
And I wish I didn't know half the things I know
But it's time to face the demons
And stop laying in the street
It's time to stand up on my own two feet
On my own two feet
On my own two feet
On my own two feet
On my own two feet
Oooooooh it's time to stand up on my own two feet
