No matter what, you're gonna break my shell
I only noticed your face
But it's not time I'm told
Close my eyes and brace myself
I love you and I understand
No matter what, you're gonna build my shell
I only noticed your face
I'm not ashamed of that long December
Your hand's coming down again
This story ends so good
Close my eyes and brace myself
No matter what, you're gonna build my shell
I'm only ten years old
I'm falling, I'm shedding my skin
No matter what, you're gonna break my shell
I close my eyes and brace myself
I am aware of what you mean and by then
I'm done healing
No matter what, you're gonna build my shell
My scars are yours today
No matter what, you're gonna build my shell
I only noticed your face
That you stood where I stood
