NINE INCH NAILS

- The Fragile 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 myseld I think that I would rather - but it's too late for me
I wont 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 everyhting else
I was like you

When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, The Fragile, a work of Nine Inch Nails, delves into the difficulty of representing oneself as a strong and valuable person in a cruel and ruthless society.

The fragile lyrics primarily bring to the listener feelings of angst, contemplation, despair, love lost and rage.
