I've been down the road Of fear and madness Under a shroud of frost Without you I've been down the road Of crying and weakness Feeling hurt and lost Without you The sleepless nights The unanswered prayers The dawn lights I've been down the road Of desolation Holding my own head In my hands I've been down the road Of ruination Sinking with my bed Into the shifting sands The absent voices / just call my name The weight of silence / I'm here with you The distant noises / don't be afraid And all that it means We're so fragile Can't you see how fragile we are Just hold my hand and I'm blessed Please give me a shelter to rest 'Cos we're so fragile like a butterfly's wings I've been down the road Of powerlessness Searching for a sign In the dark I've been down the road Of my awareness Opening my eyes And my heart A wordless scream / just call my name The empty feeling / I'm here with you A broken dream / we'll meet again And all that it means We're so fragile Can't you see how fragile we are Just hold my hand and I'm blessed Please give me a shelter to rest 'Cos we're so fragile like a butterfly's wings
