How long? And I try, and I try, and I try How long, I felt this my whole life How long? And I try, and I try, and I try And I try And I try I remember when we would always be laughing Is this still my home or a place that I hide in? Breaking from this shell is a risk I've been taking Trusting in myself in this game that I'm living, I'm living I'm up from underground I need to know How long, until this skin feels right? How long? And I try, and I try, and I try How long, I fell this my whole life How long? And I try, and I try, and I try And I try And I try And I try I need to know How long, until this skin feels right? How long? And I try, and I try, and I try How long, I fell this my whole life How long? And I try, and I try, and I try And I try And I try And I try
