[Verse 1] Stood on this rock till my boots wore through Watched the wave rise, black and true Thought I’d hold forever, thought I’d never bend But pressure builds quiet, it don’t ask, it just ends [Pre-Chorus] Every crack I hid, every hit I took Every night I told myself “you’re still the rock, don’t look” [Chorus] Even a rock can crack Even the strongest back breaks under the weight Even the deepest stone splits down the middle And lets the light in where it used to ache Even a rock can crack… And still be here when the water pulls back [Verse 2] Foam hit my face like a slap from the past Thought this time it’d take me, make the silence last But I’m still standing, soaked and split in two One half screaming “give up,” the other half whispering “through” [Bridge] Maybe breaking’s not the worst thing that can be Maybe it’s the only way the light gets in to see That I was never meant to stand forever tall Just to keep breathing… even when I fall [Final Chorus] Even a rock can crack Even the hardest heart splits down the seam Even the deepest dark lets a little dawn in And maybe that’s the start of some new dream Even a rock can crack… And still be here when the morning comes back [Outro] Still here… Even cracked… Still here… [End - 4:15]
