Such a frail little thing The edge of this teapot One wrong touch and I could see it shatter the world One wrong caress, a wrong word with a double edge The wrong way, the wrong light, the wrong love Such a frail little thing So many ways to torture But it can't go through life untouched They hit it hard and fast and take away its structure They place it where it doesn't go and expect it to stay Such a frail little thing could break under the pressure of a life that takes to much before it gives So let's strap it with tape and love while it'***** and protect it for as long as we can And when the day comes that it finally starts to break we can only hope that it's ready to stand.
