Shatterhand
Anna arrobas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shield me from it all
Wrap me in it
Is it better now
That I'm by your side

Or does it pain you to know
I'm too heavy after all
But I know
You won't ever let me go

Broken spite
Hard unfeeling
Silver beak
On the coast





Hand of cover
Let me shatter
