lyrics

oh for that armour i built over time
hardened with whiskey and polished with wine
forged in the losses i put to one side
but you came stealthily
from behind

and i went to the country i went to the isle
i tried to shake you off my shoulders for a while
but you clung on for nothing and i battled you babe
with a smile

but you can't break my heart
you can't let me down
you can't burn me out
nor thaw this ground
cos even if i coulda seen some love in your eyes
i would've let you go
cos what can you grow in stone
tell me what can you grow in stone

the bank there was breached and the flood came in
a sea this angry forgives no sin though you
long for its calm just as much as its din
and you fix on the chaos and watch the waves come in

well you can't rock my boat
you can't drown me out
and you might wanna throw me an oar babe
but this is a whole ocean of doubt
and even i coulda seen some love in your eyes
i would've let you go
though i might
sink like a stone

and i dreamt she was drowning
a 4 year old child
i dived for her hand but she was gone with the tide
just like the shameful losses i put to one side

so you can't break my heart...
