This skin: the only armor I had but it let you in Now each scar has a secret to sing, like all those yesterday's Wide eyed, thrown away, crawling, and I keep falling down This sin: like a mantle enfolds all my suffering Feel the claws of the demons dig in And no amount of numb makes their voices dumb They're calling and, I can't stop them now It may be thin, but I love it, feel the pain, rise above it We don't have to wound each other, you're my sister I'm your brother Open heart, open eyes let them in, this skin so thin These days, where's the honor in all of the wars we wage? Why do we long for the peace of our graves? Just raise our minds above all the ash and dust and we might find Our way back to love It may be thin, but I love it, feel the pain, rise above it We don't have to lose each other, you're my sister I'm your brother Open heart, open eyes let them in, this skin so thin
