Lyrics Tenderness - Laura Gibson
I
met
you,
the
year
I
stopped
fearing
my
body
The
sky
split
opened
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
Do,
Do,
Do
you
want
tenderness?
Kiss
your
mouth
for
tenderness
Settle
down
for
tenderness
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
Do,
Do,
Do
you
want
tenderness?
Split
your
lip
for
tenderness
Curse
your
name
for
tenderness
Do,
Do,
Do
you
want
tenderness?
Tenderness
Tenderness
Do,
Do,
Do
you
want
tenderness?
Break
your
leg
for
tenderness
Walk
away
for
tenderness
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
