Tender

Armour

Tender


Come forth in your armoured skin
When you don't belong alone
I will let your body in
Come forth from your iron hide
When you sit upon your throne
I will look you in the eyes

And I'd say that I don't even know you anymore
From the man of the people
To someone they ignore

I saw you coming again
You brought your heart with you
And now you're making amends
I won't let you fall apart again
The problem will start with you
They try to pretend
I can't watch you

Come forth in your armoured skin
When you don't belong alone
I will let your body in
Come forth from your iron hide
When you sit upon your throne
I will look you in the eyes

Now I know you don't try
And I know you don't mean
And you know I can't lie
Cause you're hurting me

And I'd say that I don't even know you anymore
From the man of the people
To someone they ignore
You would open your arms
And say that I am yours
Now there's blood on your hands
You cower behind closed doors

I saw you coming again
You brought your heart with you
And now you're making amends
I won't let you fall apart again
The problem will start with you
They try to pretend
I can't watch you fall apart
