fragile


how did you get so fragile
why do you think that you will break
if you say anything out loud
if you make a mistake
why do you walk on eggshells
when there's no one else around
always standing on the outside
where you'll feel safe and sound

do you ever lift your hands to the sky
without being afraid
do you ever ignore the voices
of the mistakes you've made
you know you don't have to listen
silence is good sometimes
it can help you grow stronger
it can ease your troubled mind

when you wake up in the morning
do you meet the day ahead
by analyzing every movement
you are filled with dread
but everything is up to you
in everything you see
if you work hard enough
you can set yourself free

don't be afraid of life
it's time you pulled yourself through
you are not made of antique glass
there's courage inside you
deep within your nervousness
there's someone else inside
you don't have to ask forgiveness
you don't have to run and hide

how did you get so fragile
why do you think you will break
