Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I met you the year I stopped fearing my body
Sky split open above me
It was a pleasure to meet your pain
In my shadow you're a model of reason
Don't coddle, don't tease me
Don't wake a swarm of bees beneath me
[Verse 2]
Do, do, do you want tenderness?
Kiss your mouth for tenderness
Settle down for tenderness
[Verse 3]
I've been taught I should wait to be chosen
That I haven't known love
Until I've been destroyed by love
Certain men can smell a wound a room away
You are melancholy, well
Beauty only made you lonelier
[Verse 4]
Do, do, do you want tenderness?
Kiss your mouth for tenderness
Curse your name for tenderness
[Verse 5]
Do, do, do you want tenderness?
Tenderness, tenderness
Do, do, do you want tenderness?
Break a leg for tenderness
Walk away for tenderness
[Verse 6]
I left town, tucked myself into a mountain
Became something dark and hungry
Still the creek was muttering your name
Now your face half lit, electronic
You no longer need to speak your sentiments
I no longer perform innocence
