You're not supposed to be human
You're not supposed to really feel
Not supposed to get involved

With anything completely real
Fifteen families starving
All around the corner block

Here we're standing so alone
Just like Gibraltar Rock


Not supposed to break down
You're not supposed to break down
Swallow the dirt

Keep listening to the hurt
You'll be safe and sound


Supposed to be super human
Cover everything
Just like a bird

Cover an egg with it's wing
And knowing there's nothing sacred
And what is the use

>No point trying to find
What is worth, what is true


Not supposed to break down
You're not supposed to break down
Swallow the hurt Listen to the dirt

You'll be safe and sound
You're not supposed to break down
You're not supposed to break down

Swallow the hurt
Listen to the dirt
And you'll be safe and sound


A fool and his mainline connection
By-pass going to the well

But that doesn't matter anymore
I'm sure that we can tell
Who'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 above


You'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 sound


You'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 sound

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