Breakable
Have you ever thought about what protects our hearts?
Just a cage of rib bones and other various parts.
So it's fairly simple to cut right through the mess,
And to stop the muscle that makes us confess.
And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.
You fasten my seatbelt because it is the law.
In your two-ton deathtrap I finally saw
The peace of love in your face that made me end regret.*
Then you drove me to places I'll never forget.
And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.
Just a cage of rib bones and other various parts.
So it's fairly simple to cut right through the mess,
And to stop the muscle that makes us confess.
And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.
You fasten my seatbelt because it is the law.
In your two-ton deathtrap I finally saw
The peace of love in your face that made me end regret.*
Then you drove me to places I'll never forget.
And we are so fragile,
And our cracking bones make noise,
And we are just,
Breakable, breakable, breakable girls and boys.

*Actual lyrics: A piece of love in your face that bathed me in regret. I realize I've got it wrong, but that's how I came to know and love this song, so for the sake of this post (and any singing along I'll be doing) I've chosen to leave it as is. Sorry Ingrid. -SM
