Like a petal on a flower
I'm a fragile little thing
Like a glass of chardonnay
I could be easily broken
Like a green leaf out of place
In the winter winds
I'm cold and unfamiliar
With the place, I am in
And I won't fall in
Love in the dark
In case I break my fragile skin
And I won't do away
With the mask
Today because
I am only breaking in
Like a candle in a storm
I could be easily dimmed
Like a wave upon the cliffs
I'll disappear into the wind
And like a tall tree standing
Alone without its kin
I'll stare into the distance
Wondering where I fit in
And if a tree falls down
In the woods
I'd like to be around
To hear the sound
And if you don't
Believe that I could
I'm gonna cut you
Down down down
If you turn your back on me
I'll forget about you
I'm only breaking in
It might have taken some time
To work it out
But now I'm running it
Like a candle in a storm
I could be easily dimmed
Like a wave upon the cliffs
I'll disappear into the wind
And like a tall tree standing
Alone without its kin
I'll stare into the distance
Wondering where I fit in
If you turn your back on me
I'll forget about you
I'm only breaking in
It might have taken some time
To work it out
But now I'm running it
I know I'm not gonna be weak
I can see what I want
And I'm taking it
I know it might have
Taken some time
To work it out
But now I'm breaking in
