The Fragile

Nine Inch Nails

She shines 
In a world 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 wont 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 myself 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 everything else 

I was like you
