Tension explores what happens when another person has too much control over your life. Looking back to the beginning, the narrator remembers a time when they followed in someone else's shadow, unable to see their own worth clearly. But that begins to change. As confidence grows, the narrator refuses to keep giving in. Tension becomes more than something to endure: it becomes a force that drives change, challenges old patterns and helps someone find their own strength. The song can speak to different kinds of relationships, from love to business partnerships, wherever control, dependence and self-worth come into play. At its heart, Tension is about recognising your value and deciding that you will no longer be defined by someone else's influence.

TENSION Bringing it all back Back to when we first met You took control of me I didn’t have a chance One step twice behind I walked in your shadow Now my value has risen I’m not giving in to the Tension It drives me It pushes me Tension It creates me It pulls me My heart was frozen Frozen beyond fear it created a vacuum That I couldn’t break free One step twice behind I walked in your shadow Now my value has risen I’m not giving in to the Tension It drives me It pushes me Tension It creates me It pulls me In the beginning, it can be someone’s end Where we look to start Someone finishes Life is fragile if you allow it to be One step twice behind I walked in your shadow Now my value has risen I’m not giving in to the Tension It drives me It pushes me Tension It creates me It pulls me
