Break
Unshaken Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Looking down they're rising slowly
Veins that use to hide now showing
Blood that shows no sign of slowing
It's Your love inside me growing

Can You feel my heartbeat pumping
Can You feel my heartbeat pumping
It's rushing through my veins
A love I can't contain
My heart will soon give way
It's nothing I can fake
Your blood has sealed my fate
As my heart begins to break

Your love's breaking in my heart again
Your love activates adrenaline
Your love's shaking underneath my skin

My heart is beating through my chest
Will it explode let's take a guess
It's pumping harder every breath
This heartbeat started with a death

Can You feel my heartbeat pumping
Can You feel my heartbeat pumping

Can you hear it
Can you see it
Can you feel it




My heart it beats for you
It beats for love

May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
Did I hear a thunder?
Did I hear you break?
I can't quite remember
Just what guided me this way, oh
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
The pines, they often whisper
They whisper what no tongue can tell
He who drinks from the deep water
May he know the depths of the well
Well
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
Mmm, oh, traveler
What have you seen?
Were there crossroads
Where you been, where you been?
I once was standing tall
Now I feel my back's against the wall
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
The morning light
When it comes to me
It was there but I could not see
Am I to wander
As a wayward son?
Will the hunter be hunted
By the smoking gun?
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world
May I stand unshaken
Amid, amidst a crashing world

To be fair, Arthur didn't want people to know he was sick. It took him until the half way point to even admit to himself that he might be sick. By the time he admitted to Charles he was dying, he was near the end. He also tells Mary-Beth that he's dying. The rest of the gang members, most notably Micah, learn that he is sick just not HOW sick. With the exception of Dutch, who at this point in the game is so paranoid that I think he refused to believe that he could lose Arthur.

There's a few other NPCs that Arthur tells he is sick to. The doctor, the nun, and Agent Milton are the only people he directly tells he has TB to. (He might tell Strauss or Swanson, but I've yet to see it.) Thomas Downes hoped he would get the TB but dies before any confirmation but his wife and son find out later in the game.

Rains Fall is also told that Arthur will die. While it's not confirmed as Arthur that Charlotte knows he is sick, if you go back to her as John she will say something along the lines that she knew he didn't have much longer to live. Mickey is another potential character to discover thar Arthur is dying.

On multiple occasions, store owners and station clerks will ask if Arthur is okay and he will outright deny being sick to most of them. I believe he is honest to a few of the Valentine shop keeps however, specifically the general store owner.

There might be a few I missed but the bottom line is that Arthur didn't really want most people, especially people in his gang to know he was sick. So he kept working. The people he did tell, with the exception of Agent Milton and the Valentine general store owner, are people that are either wise enough or kind enough to understand. The Downes family learn it by proxy.

@@Yemre_____ Y'know he possibly did
Because only 1/10 people that have TB actually have it visible and die from it
Most of them just have it and it breaks out when their immunesystem is to weak, or they can live up to 10 years with it if they care for themselves a lot.

Also in the last stand off when you kill Micah he coughs twice I believe
He coulde've possibly had it and we wouldn't know

Interesting to think about
But sry for the essay

The scene riding back to Shady Bell while this song was playing was one of the most iconic Rockstar moments ever.

@Neobahamutfr36

I almost felt Arthur worrying for his friends so much he was ready to exhaust his horse to death.

@julienviscloakeddemon_8701

Don't get me wrong cause it is my favorite song but wouldn't it be better if you heard this song when you are riding back to camp in the mission Red Dead Redemption

@BabyBunny-rd5pl

@@julienviscloakeddemon_8701 Yeah, maybe.

I missed this song on my first play through because I didn't want to steal a horse and walked all the way back.

I wish we never had to rescue Micah from that damn jail in strawberry

@kerryc

Or could at least kick his ass a few times after we did... I felt so cheated not being able to punch him after taunting him & making him all "het up."

@nunziopuzo9210

The game tries to trick you with this mission by making him seem not that bad.

@deffonotdio6751

Fun fact, if you wait as long as possible to free him you learn that either someone else visited him or there's a mistake, Dutch mentions that micha told him about the next base location before Arthur and Charles changed it to the one closer to the lake
