Lauren Mayberry - Strong Hand lyrics

[Verse 1] Why don't you tell me what do you need? There is a blank page for you Give me the bones of what you believe Maybe they'll save you from me [Verse 2] Will I be the strong hand keeping you safe Or will I break you in half? And you will never be under my thumb But you are not your own man [Pre-Chorus] See the way we all run When we know it all off by heart Played dead, wait it all out Will we win or lose it, this time? [Chorus] When the pressure's building for a great white hope Do you give up the things that you love? And the pressure's building 'til it takes you whole Can you go back on your own word? [Verse 3] All of your brothers, they never died For what you k**, for slowly How it will grind you into the ground If you should try to hold me [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] (x2)
