Tough Love

I've been trying to hurt you
I've been holding you tight
I've been learning to love you
Am I doing it right?

How are you still breathing
With my hands all over your heart?
How do we start healing
If we can't keep out the dark?

Are you for real tough love?
Do you want to feel tough love?
This could be real tough, love

I've been feeding you fear
You've been keeping me thin
I've been trying my best to feel you near
Without me disappearing

How do you still see me
With my hands all over your eyes?
When your friends come calling
Do they ask you with a sigh

Are you for real tough love?
Do you want to feel tough love?
This could be real tough, love

Are you for real tough love?
Do you want to feel tough love?
This could be real tough, love

Are you for real tough love?
Do you want to feel tough love?
This could be real tough, love
