Unbroken Lyrics

Missy Higgins Unbroken

Red hand print on the white of your cheek
Pack your bags quiet while the lion sleeps
Watch you mother put her name to the line
Next to the place where your father signed

And inevitably what you used to be
Will succumb to the pull of gravity
And you will never know, you will never see
With virgin eyes again

'Cause this is the day that everything changes
And your world stops turning
Running straight into the brake lights
You've come to nothing

This is the day that everything changes
And your worlds collide
And you know in time
You'll wake to find you're a little unbroken

Hold the answer to the light, see your future
Two line, blue line tragedy
He brings the metal to the fire for the first time
Tells you it's the last time and it will be

'Cause inevitably what you used to be
Will be tainted by the hand of curiosity
And you will never know, you will never see
With virgin eyes again

'Cause this is the day that everything changes
And your world stops turning
Running straight into the brake lights
You've come to nothing

This is the day that everything changes
And your worlds collide
And you know in time
You'll wake to find you're a little unbroken

So how can I explain?
The isolated rain that follows you
Wouldn't you agree
Running always slows you down

So welcome the pain
Stop yourself from delaying it
Because the real life
Will never go away

'Cause this is the day that everything changes
And your world stops turning
Running straight into the brake lights
You've come to nothing

This is the day that everything changes
And your worlds collide
You know in time
You'll wake to find you're a little unbroken

You're a little unbroken
Oh, a little unbroken
You're a little unbroken
You're a little unbroken
