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 a lie

I breathe out, you breathe in

We're just skin thin

Always knew if we didn't have each other
We'd have nothing at all
But you were always brave enough
To live like you can never fall

But ghosts up ahead for miles and miles

Life's just skin thin
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 if we didn't have each other
We'd have nothing at all
And 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
Now that we've grown up
Can finally learn to be a child
With good friends behind me
But ghosts up ahead for miles and miles
Skin thin
I breathe out, you breathe in
But the days they seem so long
Skin thin, blood again
It's all I can do to hold on
Life's just skin thin
