"Unshatter" lyrics

"Unshatter"

And we'll never, ever put it back together
I should've known better, you were lying

Maybe I made it more complicated than it had to be
Maybe I'm mistaken, but it's taking something out of me
Maybe I'm too patient 'cause I waited until now to see
Take what you say and I'll ruminate away reality

But we'll never, ever put it back together
I should've known better, you're lying

Unshatter the picture I was tryna see myself in
Unshatter the promise that I couldn't help believe
I don't know how it got so cold
But my chest is a hole, and the hole won't fill in
Unshatter me

I was waiting patiently, saving judgment for too long
When the hesitation would set the stage that I'd lose on
You were only aiming to pass the blame, and then move on
You just turned the tables and made my right to a new wrong

And we'll never, ever put it back together
I should have known better, you're lying

Unshatter the picture I was trying to see myself in
Unshatter the promise that I couldn't help believe
I don't know how it got so cold
But my chest is a hole, and the hole won't fill in
Unshatter me

You don't know me
You don't know me
I don't owe you anything, go
You don't know me
You don't know me
I don't owe you
Go
I don't owe you anything
I don't owe you anything
Go
You don't know me
You don't know me
I don't owe you anything, go
You don't know me
You don't know me
I don't owe you

And we'll never, ever put it back together
I should've known better, you're lying

Unshatter the picture I was trying to see myself in
Unshatter the promise that I couldn't help believe
I don't know how it got so cold
But my chest is a hole, and the hole won't fill in
Unshatter me

Being one of the first songs written by Linkin Park with Emily Armstrong, "Unshatter" was released on the 25th of April, 2025, as a deluxe-version bonus of their album "From Zero". The track comes from original album sessions but did not make the initial cut for the record. Mike Shinoda explained, "Emily's huge vocal in the bridge was one of the moments that gave us an indication of what was possible together." The deluxe version was first teased with the new song "Up From the Bottom" which was written after the album was complete.
