I'm finding it hard to be tender I'm finding it tough to the touch The blade of the tongue the defender The trace of the thumb to crush The weight of the water The way through the waves The hopeful daughter Unable to play The weight of the water The way through the waves The hopeful daughter Unable to stay I'm finding it hard Spinning Sinking Is it the same thing Splitting Blinking A slit to an ending Healing Heaving The bile that the past brings Dusting Dreaming Corners for meaning Dear I can't find The switch to the light Dear you're quite right I've lost it tonight And how I'd like to save this Dear I can't find The switch to the light Dear you're quite right I've lost it tonight I'm finding it hard to be tender I'm finding it tough to the touch The blade of the tongue the defender The trace of the thumb to crush Oh dear I lied I pulled out the wires But wait for the warmth From the electrical fire
