The Fragile
by NIN

she shines
in a world full of ugliness
she matters when everything is meaningless
fragile
she doesn't see her beauty
she tries to get away
sometimes
it's just that nothing seems worth saving
i can't watch her slip away
i won't let you fall apart
she reads the minds of all the people as they pass her by
hoping someone can see
if i could fix myseld i'd-
but it's too late for me
i wont let you fall apart
we'll find the perfect place to go where we can run and hide
i'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side
...but they keep waiting
...and picking...
it's something i have to do
i was there, too
before everyhting else
i was like you
