Armour

You hold on hard getting knocked around
Hold on and take a blow right to your face
Lips cracked open with the stain of blood
Could've sworn I saw you go for another taste

Black and blue and dripping red
A sweeter pain than the words inside your head
Too pink and raw to be said out loud
Give me sweat and scars on a shining coat of armour

You don't wanna try
Don't wanna try
Don't wanna try

You don't wanna try
Don't wanna try
Don't wanna try

But there's something in there
That you've lost
There's something in there
That you've lost

You beat it out from your aching bones
Beat it into the body of another man
A dance of steel and stone cold eyes
Two faceless friends with iron fists for hands

You let it out but it's not enough
Beneath your armour you might break
Get up and laugh but it's all too much
Inside the mind you're trying to escape

You don't wanna try
Don't wanna try
Don't wanna try

You don't wanna try
Don't wanna try
Don't wanna try

But there's something in there
That you've lost
There's something in there
That you've lost

But there's something in there
That you've lost
There's something in there
That you've lost
