Lyrics -
you take your love so freely / can’t you go easy on me / hard to resist, harder to give up like a habit / why do you go losing control / what are you looking for / all this noise when I need silence / love shouldn’t feel like violence / swallow your pride open up wide / let the whole world in / empty again punish a friend make em all suffer /it’s so easy / I can’t help it / how could I disguise the way that I’m feeling / I’ve got my reasons, I could give you a million / my mind has been divided and I’ve been questioning myself / can’t keep on hesitating / it’s starting to affect my health / hard to resist, harder to give up my bad habits / why do I go losing control / what am I looking for / it’s so easy I can’t help it / oh I know that I can’t control but it’s so hard to let it go / all the worries they keep coming back / and the disappointments from our past / how could I disguise the way that I’m feeling / I’ve got my reasons, I could give you a million / I’d move on if I could only remember / all that it takes is just an act of surrender

@@xsarchitect ugh no she's not. She's one of the most talented people in the industry rn. Singer, song writer, dancer/performer, actress. Not to mention she's humble, and no where near egotistical like most of her contemporaries. Don't understand how you can talk down on an artist who writes every single one of their songs and fights for their vision. Please stop being bitter, there's no reason to hate on her.

How Tennis manages to sing directly to my soul, my god its so sweet.

[@jorgecuarezma4035]

"All this noise when I need silence, love shouldn't feel like violence" This is the part that hits me the most. It always makes me thing how you can grow up in a violent family environment, you know, the same family you get affection from. It's like if you naturally learn to associate these two things and you can't conceive one without the other... Now go out to the world having that conception and try to build relationships, you"ll definitely find a pattern and once you realize that; it blows your mind.

[@riz350]

this is tennis's best song ever. period

[@SW-ry4xt]

Naming a less-elaborate music video a 'Visualizer' is just so cool and natural. Genuinely had to look up if this was a normal thing that musicians do. Love it.

[@spaicklesauce754]

*cries* Why is Tennis so underrated while trash is getting the attention it never should derserve?

[@HomeHairTransplant]

My theory is they don't want to get buggered literally and figuratively by the machine that makes and props up those other artists to be as big as they are.

[@KittyPieVibes]

Tennis definitely deserves more attention. They are amazing. But don’t trash other music! Each to their own, friend.
