Fragile

We all expect it every new year

Better change here

Beneath the shade of darker days.

 

I’ve fought too long to let my guard down now

For what might come round now

Should these blue skies turn to greys.

 

Cause life’s as fragile as window glass

fortified with

Broken panes from weathered pasts

But you can either

Brace incase it comes down on you

And keep boarding up your view

Or try to see the light that’s shining through.

 

There ain’t no golden trophy or finish line

Till you’re out of time

And till then it’s smiles and frowns.

 

I’ve raised so many of my white flags 

Tragic set-backs

But this world ain’t slowin down.

 

Cause life’s as fragile as window glass

fortified with

Broken panes from weathered pasts

But you can either

Brace incase it comes down on you

And keep boarding up your view

Or try to see the light that’s shining through.

 

Cause everyone you see has carried something

You never know just how hard someone’s fighting

So throw your shutters open, let the light in

You see, what will be will be. 

 

And life’s as fragile as window glass

fortified with

Broken panes from weathered pasts

But you can either

Brace incase it comes down on you

And keep boarding up your view

Or try to see the light that’s shining through.
