lyrics

When life's a mess
You shift to tenderness
In distress
You shift to tenderness
I've been wrong
You've been right
Must've been right ten hundred times
But not unless
You shift to tenderness
When time eagerly skips
It slips, but never falls
It breaks its fall so well
On the mistakes you never tell
And when the one you truly love
Claims everything is not enough
You finally shift
Shift toward tenderness
A broken lamp shade
Lets the light on through
And nature has its way with you
You die just when it wants you to
And everyone's so screwed
But tenderness
Will help you carry through
