"Vulnerable" lyrics

"Vulnerable"

You think resistance makes you seem so strong
You keep your distance and wonder why we don't get along

I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you
There's a better way
I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you
It's all just gotta say

Sometimes your meekness isn't a weakness
Sometimes a whisper says it all
It's hard to get close when you won't show emotion
It takes a whole lot of trust to fall
So you've got to be vulnerable

You try so hard to stay against the wall
I think part of your heart's due for an overhaul

And I gotta tell you, I gotta tell you
You're gonna have to open up
There's no such thing as close enough

Sometimes your meekness isn't a weakness
Sometimes a whisper says it all
It's hard to get close when you won't show emotion
It takes a whole lot of trust to fall
So you've got to be vulnerable

Sometimes your meekness isn't a weakness
Sometimes a whisper says it all
It's hard to get close when you won't show emotion
It takes a whole lot of trust to fall
So you've got to be vulnerable
