The sigit

Tired Eyes

First try to cover this kind of psychadelic-rock-ish stuff so don't be hard on me ;)

The Sigit - All the time

You talk like you've been through hell
I was born into it
While you were learning to throw your first punch
I was learning to smile through the first insult
While you were bragging about the scars you chose
I was collecting the ones I did not
I've been told to sit pretty, to shut up
To take a joke when there wasn't one

I've learned to read the room before I speak
To swallow rage so deep
You wear your toughness like a jacket
I had mine sewn into my skin
So no
You're not tougher than me
Because baby, you've never had to be

I've been talked over
I've been looked through
I've walked home with my keys in my fist
Praying the footsteps behind me kept their distance

I've learned to read the room before I speak
I swallow rage so deep
You wear your toughness like a jacket
I had mine sewn into my skin
So no
You're not tougher than me
Because baby, you've never had to be

You think you're tough cause you've fought men
I've fought the way men look at me
The way they talk to me
The way the world keeps telling me
I'm smaller, and expecting me to prove otherwise
Without ever breaking stride
I don't need to tell you
I'm tougher than you
Because you've never had to
Survive me

I've learned to read the room before I speak
I swallow rage so deep
You wear your toughness like a jacket
I had mine sewn into my skin
So no
You're not tougher than me
Because you have never had to be
