[Verse] I fold my arms Hold the world in place Smile stitched tight Can't let it fade Who sees the cracks The lines I hide Who knows the weight I keep inside [Prechorus] They lean on me I stand so tall But who will catch me when I fall [Chorus] Eldest daughters We carry it all We build the walls We take the calls We don’t break No We just bend But even strong hearts need a friend [Verse 2] I learned to love through quiet care To patch the wounds To always be there But I get tired My shoulders ache How much more can this soul take [Bridge] A whispered wish A quiet plea Someone to hold Someone for me But silence answers Like it’s meant to be I give the hugs I set them free [Chorus] Eldest daughters We carry it all We build the walls We take the calls We don’t break No We just bend But even strong hearts need a friend
