To Be Tough Video (MV)

Sometimes my thoughts are in three part harmony
I can't quite hear one clear tune
The tonal rules broken and I listen carefully
I hope the beat won't drop too soon
I wonder if every great day will be poisoned
By the chance of it turning around
What if I spread disease and an ocean of noise
And my feet never reach solid ground?
I've never been ungrateful
That's one thing you'll learn if you talk to me long
Ask me about all the people
I love, but wonder if they know
When I grow up, I want to be tough
I'm floor sitting Thursday, I feel a bit nauseous
The wood grounds me when I float
I'm humming a famous old funeral song cautiously
But I have to pause to clear my throat
Please can the dreams go away?
I want to want to stay
I'm finally breaking the habit
I made, forgot and forgave
Hand me a guitar, all I can do is play
I'm reaching for something to hold
Talking to walls in the dark
I'm trying to be more bold
But I'm free falling, still hide all my cards
Maybe they're telling the truth
I should try to be less combative
Maybe I'll start to improve
Start feeling less radioactive
Keep a light on I'm on my way home
I know curfew was hours ago
I'll still find new people to hold
In the afterglow, you already know
I'm finally ready, I want to go home
