Give You an Inch
That's how you are
It's a crazy game
That we've got to play
Certainty and doubt
Are what it's all about
You say, say you love me, but your words can fade
You may yet love me, but you know
I don't feel it
When the going gets rough
You can get tough
Baring your teeth behind your smile
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
Masks are made to hide what you are inside
Making you two-faced
Who are you today?
You say, say you need me, words that fade away
You may yet need me, but you know
I don't feel it
When the going gets rough
You can get tough
Baring your teeth behind your smile
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
You got to get so rough
When you get so tough
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
You can get tough
That's how you are
Words are all around
But you don't make a sound
Play me for a fool
You are so cruel
When the going gets rough
You can get tough
Baring your teeth behind your smile
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
You got to get so rough
When you get so tough
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
Give you an inch, you take a mile (you're so tough, you're so tough)
Give you an inch, you take a mile
It's a crazy game
That we've got to play
Certainty and doubt
Are what it's all about
You say, say you love me, but your words can fade
You may yet love me, but you know
I don't feel it
When the going gets rough
You can get tough
Baring your teeth behind your smile
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
Masks are made to hide what you are inside
Making you two-faced
Who are you today?
You say, say you need me, words that fade away
You may yet need me, but you know
I don't feel it
When the going gets rough
You can get tough
Baring your teeth behind your smile
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
You got to get so rough
When you get so tough
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
You can get tough
That's how you are
Words are all around
But you don't make a sound
Play me for a fool
You are so cruel
When the going gets rough
You can get tough
Baring your teeth behind your smile
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
You got to get so rough
When you get so tough
But you go too far
That's how you are
Give you an inch, you take a mile
Give you an inch, you take a mile (you're so tough, you're so tough)
Give you an inch, you take a mile
