Lyrics

    She shines
    In a world full 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 won’t 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 won’t 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
