[Verse] And it's like God has got a mean streak I've been on my knees for weeks And I've been trying to stay awake Through everything [Verse 2] And if the good Lord is truly listening I wish he'd stop saying things That he knows I cannot change No matter how hard I pray [Chorus] I've got thick skin and a paper heart And she tore it apart She tore it apart I've got thick skin and a paper heart And she tore it apart She tore it apart [Verse 3] And if the angels are taking sides Could one please say a prayer for mine? I can do it one more time For old times' sake [Verse 4] And if the good Lord truly listens And if he's actually interested Then tell him I'm getting tired I'm getting tired of trying [Chorus] I've got thick skin and a paper heart And she tore it apart She tore it apart I've got thick skin and a paper heart And she tore it apart She tore it apart
