Unbreakable

Russell D. Nomer 1972 (NEW YORK)

Ballad
And when I touched your soul I saw the moon burst into flames...

Bleeding darkness  onto the golden canvas of dawn...like a painting sealed with pain

And when I sailed your tears through endless time...I found a sunlit beach

But, when I swam to reach your shores...
It moved forever out of reach

And when I finally fall apart
When I'm shattered and insane

When I laugh but cry inside
Please, don't ever call my name

Tear me apart and turn me into music
Break me apart and build me into song
