Fragile
FRAGILE
In all creation no ones greater
Except God for He made us a little better than the angels
But He hadn't planned on sin nature
Getting the better of us
We gathered together
We were easily broken, Damaged
Because we scatter like cattle
FRAGILE
We have the power to control any animal
For Adam the first man named all the animals
But his disobedience caused us to faint
Now we must drink of the cup of sin
As we relinquish shaky grip on reality
My body and heart and spirit and mind so flimsy
We gathered together we're easily broken damaged
We scatter like cattle because we're
FRAGILE, FRAGILE
The complexity of the simple things
The softening of gold and diamonds
Metals are strong but they can't stay hard against a nuclear explosion
Any and everything that is made can be broken
I'm a living witness I'm the devils token
Insecure, unreliable, vulnerable, not strong nor sturdy
Because we're bullied, we scatter like cattle
FRAGILE, FRAGILE, FRAGILE
Like an egg if I'm dropped I will bust up break up
Like a glass bowl in the fridge it you let go that's it
Like a fall out of a tree one or two broken bones on me
Like a light bulb when dropped will shatter the strongest part of it is metal
What's the matter why we so delicate, weak, frail, ill, unwell poorly vulnerable
and morally weak
It's all Adam's fault he should not have bitten the fruit
But his disobedience caused us to faint
Now we must drink of the cup of sin
As we relinquish shaky grip on reality
My body and heart and spirit and mind so flimsy
We gathered together we're easily broken damaged
We scatter like cattle because we're
FRAGILE
Except God for He made us a little better than the angels
But He hadn't planned on sin nature
Getting the better of us
We gathered together
We were easily broken, Damaged
Because we scatter like cattle
FRAGILE
