The Unbreakable

(앨범: The Things We Carry - 2006)

He was a kind hearted man in a hateful world
Who caught every thing that life ever hurled
Like the oldest fucking mountain he always stood so tall
Forever showing what it means to be unbreakable

Paycheck to paycheck, three jobs a day
He's the ransom for his family's pain
In the coldest world with the warmest heart
He puts to shame what you consider hard

He's the man you don't see in the mirror
While the world was screaming death
He chose a different song to hear
He's the band that's playing
While the ship sinks
The song of hope, he forever sings

He taught the sun to shine
So teach me, teach me
Can you please teach this "son" to shine

How can this world never break
Your warm heart in this frigid fucking place?
You're like the river that keeps on flowing
And growing, never changing; rearranging
How can this world never take
Your solid stance in these turbulent time?
You're like the tree in the burning forest
That never was burned down

And what he said to me was this
"Just love the world that won't love you back"

Old man take a look at my life
I'm nothing like you are
Take a look at my life
I'm so very fucking far
From the person I aspire to be
The person I aspire to be
The person I aspire to be

Unbreakable
Unbreakable
Unbreakable
Unbreakable
