Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I lace up my smile like boots

Pull it tight so it won’t fall through

Got jokes in my pocket for the bad days

Say I’m fine

Then I look away

[Pre-Chorus]

You see steel where there’s just tired skin

You see thunder

I’m a whisper in the wind

How do I tell you that I’m breaking again?

[Chorus]

This is my body of armour

Shiny on the outside

Cracked along the seams

Holding it together with a tremor in my teeth

You see a fighter

I’m a runner

Screaming in a room that nobody walks in

I’m drowning in the quiet that I keep within

Body of armour

And I’m crying underneath my skin

[Verse 2]

I stitch every scar with grace

Turn the wreck into resting place

Laugh too loud when the silence stings

Bite my tongue till it stops remembering

[Pre-Chorus]

You call me brave

But you don’t see

The little girl hiding in the balcony

Watching her whole world fall from the balcony

[Chorus]

This is my body of armour

Shiny on the outside

Cracked along the seams

Holding it together with a tremor in my teeth

You see a fighter

I’m a runner

Screaming in a room that nobody walks in

I’m drowning in the quiet that I keep within

Body of armour

And I’m crying underneath my skin

[Bridge]

[Music drops to soft guitar and vocal]

How loud do I have to break?

To make an echo in your chest?

If I let the metal shake

Will you stay

Like the rest never did? (oh)

If I lay my weapons down

Let the rust and the rivers out

Will you hold what I’ve tried to hide

Or turn away from the mess inside?

[Chorus]

This is my body of armour

Shiny on the outside

Cracked along the seams

Holding it together with a tremor in my teeth

You see a fighter

I’m a runner

Screaming in a room that nobody walks in

I’m drowning in the quiet that I keep within

Body of armour

And I’m crying

I’m crying underneath my skin
