JJ Heller's song 'Unbreakable Heart' gently encourages listeners to risk vulnerability and embrace love, even after experiencing heartbreak. The lyrics contrast hiding in emotional safety with the fullness of living openly, suggesting that avoiding love leads to isolation and emptiness. The song affirms that humans are made for connection and love, not for self-protection that turns the heart to stone. It invites the listener to step out of fear and into the warmth of authentic relationships, trading safety for the courage to love again. While not explicitly Christian, the message aligns with biblical themes of love and community.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

If you don?t want your heart to be broken

Don?t give it to anyone

Keep it inside 

Find a good place to hide

You?ll be safe from the dangers of love


Lock all the doors and the windows

So no one can find a way in

Pretend you?re not there

Pretend you don?t care

And they?ll never hurt you again


The longer you live in the shadows

The more you can feel like a ghost

But maybe the thing you?re afraid of is what you need the most


Come on outside where you belong

I know you?re scared, but you are strong

You?re made for love

Not for the dark

Nobody wants an unbreakable heart


A heart without love is a desert

An island where nothing will grow

Set it down on the shelf

And there by itself

It will slowly turn into a stone


The longer you live in the shadows

The more you can feel like a ghost

But maybe the thing you?re afraid of is what you need the most


Come on outside where you belong

I know you?re scared, but you are strong

You?re made for love

Not for the dark

Nobody wants an unbreakable heart


So open up all of the shutters

Feel the warmth of the sun

Put your armor away 

Tear down your barricades

And trade in your safety for love
