Learning how to bend

[Verse 1]
Used to wear my armor tight
Never let the tears fall
Till you came along one night
Changed it all, that's all

[Chorus]
I'm learning how to bend without breaking
Finding strength in the way that I'm shaking
Between softness and steel, I'm awakening
To a truth I've been too scared to feel

[Post-chorus]
(Learning how to bend, learning to be real)
(Learning how to bend, learning to be real)

[Verse 2]
Movie scenes make me cry now
Next to you, it's okay
All these walls coming down now
Day by day, we change

[Chorus]
I'm learning how to bend without breaking
Finding strength in the way that I'm shaking
Between softness and steel, I'm awakening
To a truth I've been too scared to feel

[Post-chorus]
(Learning how to bend, learning to be real)
(Learning how to bend, learning to be real)

[Bridge]
In every fight we grow stronger
Through every tear we see clearer
You show me I can be both
Fierce and tender, wild and whole

[Verse 3]
Prayed for you in summer rain
Now you're here with me
Teaching me to trust again
Finally free

[Chorus]
I'm learning how to bend without breaking
Finding strength in the way that I'm shaking
Between softness and steel, I'm awakening
To a truth I've been too scared to feel

[Post-chorus]
(Learning how to bend, learning to be real)
(Learning how to bend, learning to be real)
[Fade out]
