skin thin

Ben Harper

Now that you've grown up
you can finally learn to be a child.
We made it to the end of the world
but we'll never make it out alive.

Skin thin
I breathe out you breathe in
but the days seem so long.
Skin thin. Blood again
It's all I can do to hold on.
We're just skin thin.

Always knew that if we didn't have each other
we'd have nothing at all.
But you were always brave enough
to live like you could never fall.

Skin thin
I breathe out you breathe in
but the days seem so long.
Skin thin. Blood again.
It's all I can do to hold on. Hold on.

Now that we have grown up
can finally learn to be a child.
With good friends behind me
with ghosts up ahead for miles and miles.

Skin thin
I breathe out you breathe in
The days they seem so long.
Skin thin. Blood again.
It's all I can do to hold on.
Life's just skin thin.
