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
