lyrics

i spent morning to night sharpening my claws for fight or flight
back to my burrow, where no friend nor foe dare follow
i need to get some sleep, so i can clearly think, i don't want to decide
dig deep down or let it go, because nothing's forever
nothing's forever

my armor makes me brute, but between the scutes i lay bare all
my skin, so soft and thin, punctured by just a prick, i am weak but
i smell miles away the bullshit you say, why must you tell lies
i keep closed my eyes, nothing's forever
nothing's forever

this is too tough to chew
can't stomach what's the truth
blown out of proportion
i'll either sink or swim
inflate to twice my size
buoyancy's on my side
afloat for moment's time
but nothing's forever
nothing's forever
