Slipping into Madness

G-2: All the king’s horses and all the king’s men

Fragility is a delicate word. Based on that, compose a song (lyrics) that deal with ‘fragility’.

You say that I am fragile
so soft and cold and pale
I promise you,
no matter what you do,
I refuse to fail.

Hearts when they're broken
can let new loves in.
Souls when they're mended are right.
I'm like a wind chime
off tune and worn thin,
but I'll find my strength and I'll fight.

I was shattered once
not a bit of me was whole,
but with care and glue
I made myself anew,
a new piecework for my soul.

The cracks will always stay,
the pain will never pass,
but I'll not quit,
I'll handle it,
I'm iron under glass.

Hearts when they're broken
can let new loves in.
Souls when they're mended are right.
I'm like a wind chime
off tune and worn thin,
but I'll find my strength and I'll fight.

Yes, I'll find my strength
though the pain will not pass.
I'm iron under glass.
