[Intro]
Growing up, skin and bone
I was told to watch my tone
[Verse 1]
Slim was a warrior prince
Caught in the wind and as thin as the walls
Other children would weep
Oh but he was the willow standing tall
Through the air, their curses flew
Like acid rain they'd fall
Other children would cry
Oh but I was only learning to crawl
[Pre-Chorus]
Ten years old and already a vagrant
Throwing stones and skipping all the bases
Spitting out gold and lying to their faces
[Chorus]
Growing up skin and bone
I was told to watch my tone
There’s a reason I sang loud to the stereo
How could you be so cold?
Always dreaming of taking you down
But no, I was thin as the walls
Growing up, skin and bone
I was told to watch my tone
[Verse 1]
Slim was a warrior prince
Caught in the wind and as thin as the walls
Other children would weep
Oh but he was the willow standing tall
Through the air, their curses flew
Like acid rain they'd fall
Other children would cry
Oh but I was only learning to crawl
[Pre-Chorus]
Ten years old and already a vagrant
Throwing stones and skipping all the bases
Spitting out gold and lying to their faces
[Chorus]
Growing up skin and bone
I was told to watch my tone
There’s a reason I sang loud to the stereo
How could you be so cold?
Always dreaming of taking you down
But no, I was thin as the walls
