Lyrics
What you're used to killing you
Is making you stronger
You hold a little more than before
For a little bit longer
The page you're on, old and worn
Overread, yellowed, cracked and torn
So, turn the page, carry on,
You're bold and brave
So much stronger than you know
No guarantee you'll be free
Of imminent danger
But we've got chemistry and you've got me
And I have seen stranger
The page you're on, old and worn
Overread, yellowed, cracked and torn
So, turn the page, carry on,
You're bold and brave
So much stronger than you know
You can't foresee your enemy
Or pending disaster
But you've got agency, resilience, ease
And infinite laughter
The page you're on, old and worn
Overread, yellowed, cracked and torn
So, turn the page, carry on,
You're bold and brave
So much stronger than you know
What used to be killing me
Is making me stronger
I hold a little more than before
For a little bit longer
