'The Unbreakable' was written about Patrick Flynn's grandfather, and is virtually about how self-sacrificing his grandfather had been to help his family, even in the roughest of times.
Though after Pat was told about the truth of his grandfather
"old man, i heard some things about the boy you used to be.
no father, no king, just a broken old man broken by the whiskey."
He later wrote this song in realisation of his own father’s sacrifices.
Pilaf1996 pretty much hit the nail on the head.
They’re truly an amazing band and the song is a proven result of it, probably the best on their ’08 album.
