[Verse] Get home, keep my armor on, Tell myself I need a break. Five minutes into doing nothin', I'm burnin' myself at the stake. I'd tell a friend, "You're tired. Leave the dishes. Get some sleep." I'm callin' the same thing lazy When the one bein' tired is me. [Pre-Chorus] Hold it in, till you get home. Hold it in, till nobody sees you. [Chorus] I'm sorry I'm one more thing We gotta go through. You do enough to get us home, I demand even more from you. Gotta be tough, be tough, As if livin' wasn't hard enough. Gotta be tough, be tough, As if livin' wasn't hard enough. [Verse] We got good at "I'm fine," Keepin' answers short and sweet. Ain't nobody askin' questions, And I called that bein' at peace. I remember being frightened If I gave an inch, we'd fall. So I never gave us credit Just one more beast to slay. [Pre-Chorus] Hold it in, till you get home. Hold it in, till nobody sees you. [Chorus] I'm sorry I'm one more thing We gotta go through. You do enough to get us home, I demand even more from you. Gotta be tough, be tough, As if livin' wasn't hard enough. Gotta be tough, be tough, As if livin' wasn't hard enough. [Bridge] I don't even remember How it started being like this, did we hear it from mom Or was it from dad? Who cares who said it first, cuz my voice's sayin' it now... And that's breakin' us down... [Chorus] I'm sorry I'm one more thing We gotta go through. You do enough to get us home, Gotta learn that enough's good too. Gotta be tough, be tough, As if livin' wasn't hard enough. Gotta be tough, be tough, As if livin' wasn't hard enough. [Outro] But you don't gotta be tough with me, When livin's already hard enough.
