Lyrics

I learned young how to shut it down How to keep my head when the roof fell down How to bite my tongue when you burn my chest How to carry more than just call it stress They said be strong, so I never showed How much it cost just to hold that load You don't cry, you don't complain You just tighten up and take the blame You don't break, you don't bend You just say, "I'm good again" Heavy hands, heavy heart Heavy crown from the start Hold it in, hold the line Keep it straight, keep it fine Nobody sees what it demands In a man with heavy hands You fix the leak, you fix the car You fix the things that fall apart But no one asks what's breaking you They just expect you'll make it through You don't get space, you don't get breaks You just get told to know your place Stand up tall, don't let it show Even when you're running low You don't crack, you don't fall You just take it all Heavy hands, heavy heart Heavy crown from the start Hold it in, hold the line Keep it straight, keep it fine Nobody sees what it demands In a man with heavy hands I'm not asking for applause I'm not asking you to care I just wish sometimes Somebody knew what's there Heavy hands, heavy heart Heavy crown from the start Hold it in, hold the line Keep it straight, keep it fine Nobody sees what it demands In a man with heavy hands
