Credits are incorrect - should be Harriet Wheeler/David Gavurin.

Pretty sure that the line (which smacks you in the face with a gorgeous harmony on the record) is "Love, hate and a pair of hands, that's where I began" - one of the most concise yet beautiful descriptions of art in general (and songwriting in particular) I've ever heard.

“Give me a love & hate on both my hands I'll show you what I'm made of”

Sounds like a reference to LOVE and HATE tattoos on your knuckles.

“Then I’ll show you what I’m made of.”

Come and have a go if you think you’re hard enough.
