Rae Spoon – Armour
We feel it before we wake up.
It’s there when we close our eyes.
All of the things we traded
for a fortress to stay alive.
You know every stone I placed
was to build a life for you.
On our bodies we wear armour.
We can’t tell where which one ends.
Throw it off and we’d go farther.
There’s no place we can begin.
There’s no amount of damage
that we can’t withstand.
We are not made to be broken
even by our own hands.
You know every stone I placed
was to build a life for you.
On our bodies we wear armour.
We can’t tell where which one ends.
Throw it off and we’d go farther.
There’s no place we can begin.
All of the deals we made
In the places that we can’t hide.
All of the victories won
on a battlefield inside.
You know every stone I placed
was to build a life for you.
You know every stone I placed
was to build a life for you.
On our bodies we wear armour.
We can’t tell where which one ends.
Throw it off and we’d go farther.
There’s no place we can begin.
On our bodies we wear armour.
We can’t tell where which one ends.
Throw it off and we’d go farther.
There’s no place we can begin.
