Not Allowed to Be Broken

from There Are Enough Songs in the World by Rory Nellis

lyrics

It’s starting to set
Yeah the mortar is made and it’s starting to set so
Can we pick at the bricks
Yeah push it through and I’ll pull it out oh
Then at least we can talk
Yeah at least we can talk through the gap in the wall oh
And I’ll make you smile and I’ll look you in the eye

I’m not allowed to be broken
Not while there’s blood in my veins
For some curious reason I’ve spoken
And now it can’t be unsaid

So I’ll sing you to sleep
I’ll sing this one and this one until you’ve gone over
And I’ll sit there a while
And I’ll think about what the best thing today was
And I’ll figure it out
Yeah we’ll figure it out or he’ll figure it out oh
So I’m asking for you is there something I can do

I’m not allowed to be broken
Not while there’s blood in my veins
For some curious reason I’ve spoken
And now it can’t be unsaid
