Forced To Be Tender (Version 2)- Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We came together
From empty rooms
Tired eyes
Cheap coffee
Silent afternoons
You said
“I’m so tired
Of being brave”
I laughed too quickly
I was just as afraid
[Pre-Chorus]
How much longer
Could we fake being fine
Two worn-out hearts
Standing in line
[Chorus]
We both forced ourselves
To be tender
To stay when it felt
Easier to run
We leaned into
Every splinter
Held each other
Like we were coming undone
We didn’t fall in love
We climbed it
Remember
We both forced ourselves
Till it started to feel like us
[Verse 2]
You folded your anger
Into my hands
I laid my old shame down
Right where you stand
We changed our habits
One stubborn thought
Learning to trust
What the other one brought
[Pre-Chorus]
How much longer
Could we carry that weight
We chose each other
Over escape
[Chorus]
We both forced ourselves
To be tender
To stay when it felt
Safer to give up
We leaned into
Every splinter
Shared the cold truth
From the cracks in our cups
We didn’t fall in love
We built it
Remember
We both forced ourselves
Till it started to feel like us
[Bridge]
It wasn’t magic
It was Monday
It was dishes in the sink
And you choosing to stay
It was saying
“I’m sorry”
Before getting asked
It was trusting the future
More than the past
[Chorus]
We both forced ourselves
To be tender
To stay when it felt
Easier to run
We leaned into
Every splinter
Held each other
Like we were coming undone
We didn’t fall in love
We learned it
Remember
We both forced ourselves
Till it started to feel like love
