Fragile Lyrics


Ben Folds Fragile

You're only sorry when you've been called out
And suddenly sane when I stand my ground
And you have made such a mess with no worry, no thought
Here come the tears now that you've been caught

Afraid to confront you when you're so childlike
You pull no punches and I absorb them
Just when I've had enough, just before I might crack
You make me smile and I take all of those thoughts back

Something so fragile about you
It's how you get away with what you do
It's like crash, boom, oops
Did I break that too?
And I almost believe you

And just when I'd had enough, and I thought I might leave
Rather than hurt you, I'd let you hurt me

Something so fragile about you
It's how you get away with what you do
It's like you're someone else
And when you come to
Your eyes well up
Oops, did I break that too?
And I almost believe you

Something so fragile about you
It's like I blacked out for a year and woke up with you
With a crash, boom, oops
Did I break that too?
