fragile
FRAGILE - written by Darius Empty moonlight, heavy moon Puts the sun to bed too soon Hungry half truth overflows Betrays the silver ring she chose Encouraged kisses, teasing touch Kills a thirst to yearn this much A bliss abandoned, velvet trust An open heart confused by lust She didn't need me, I Needed time to just hold on And so she bleeds me dry Cannot pretend that I'm that strong In a fragile world I have agile faith And my fragile bones Won't break in haste So the serpentine girl With the turpentine words Won't light me up, won't burn me out Not today Loving lavished, a lover scorned Petals red with blood from thorns Careless promise, empty words A smile conceals a graceful curse Stolen whispers, jealous rain Wet the lips of truth in vain Straining anchor, a kiss denied Builds a dam to hold her lies She didn't need me, I Needed time to just hold on And so she bleeds me dry Cannot pretend that I'm that strong In a fragile world I have agile faith And my fragile bones Won't break in haste So the serpentine girl With the turpentine words Won't light me up, won't burn me out Not today It's a fragile world And I have agile faith Oh my fragile bones Won't break in haste So the serpentine girl With the turpentine words Won't light me up, won't burn me out Not today It's my saving grace It's my fading grace
