With a fragile mind
And a wild way about her
She left home young
With songs unsung
On paths that tried to bind her
She went south to north
And outside in
And found a well to hold her
A well so wide
She couldn't hide
The voice that lived inside her
With a fragile mind
And a wild way about her
She left home young
With songs unsung
On paths that tried to bind her
She went south to north
And outside in
And found a well to hold her
A well so wide
She couldn't hide
The voice that lived inside her
I'm sitting in someone else's home
But the darkness in this room's my own
I was with you once but now you're gone
So I face this tired time alone
This fragile heart is split in two
One is mine and one's for you
But if my love always falls thru
How will I know if love is true?
Turning wheels and ticking time
Will bring me to a truth that's mine
But only if I break and cry
And open up new eyes that shine
But shining isn't all it seems
When human eyes can barely see
That life and death are merely streams
That flow into each other's dreams
Turning wheels and ticking time
Will bring me to a truth that's mine
But only if I break and cry
And open up new eyes that shine
So wake up, dear, to all your pain
And know all that will remain
Is something lost and something gained
So take the chance to live again
Turning wheels and ticking time
Will bring me to a truth that's mine
But only if I break and cry
And open up new eyes that shine
