Fragile Lyrics - Darius Danesh

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
