Thick Skin

I've opened up a place In this simple song It's a little bit of space I'm leaving…… Taking chances At first glances That you'll get me all wrong And cross out every word I'm singing Or this could grow on you (my friend) Might not knock you down Or drag you in But it's a place I can begin To get under your antenna and your Thick skin How about a little wind In your perfect hair? How about a little swim In my ocean?…… I'm dreaming in and breathing in The metaphoric air Designed to get your faith in motion Working in precision (on your) Thick skin Making an incision (in your) Thick skin Creating some division (in your) Thick skin Dropping words of wisdom (on your) Thick skin I've opened up a vein And let the ink get out It's dripping from the hand I'm moving... ... The mystery in You and me Is what it's all about And true love is the scalpel I've been using
