Not Supposed to Break Down

You're not supposed to be human

You're not supposed to really feel

Not supposed to get involved with

Anything completely realFifteen families starving

All around the corner block

Here we're standing so alone

Just like Gibraltar rockNot supposed to break down

You're not supposed to break down

Swallow the dirt, keep listening to the hurt

You'll be safe and soundSupposed to be super human

Cover everything

Just like a bird

Cover an egg with its wingAnd knowing there's nothing sacred

And what is the use

No point trying to find

What is worth, what is trueNot supposed to break down

You're not supposed to break down

Swallow the hurt, listen to the dirt

And you'll be safe and soundYou're not supposed to break down

You're not supposed to break down

Swallow the hurt, listen to the dirt

You'll be safe and soundA fool and his mainline connection

Bypass going to the well

But that doesn't matter anymore

I'm sure that we can tellWho's a puppet on a string

An who really holds the glove

But it ain't up, you and me

It's up to the Lord aboveYou're not supposed to break down

You're not supposed to break down

Swallow the hurt, keep on listening to the dirt

And I'll bet you'll be safe and soundYou're not supposed to break down

You're not supposed to break down

Swallow the hurt, listen to the dirt

I'll bet you'll be safe and soundAnd I'll bet you'll be safe and sound

And I'll bet you'll be safe and sound

Bet you'll be safe and sound
