Precious and fragile things 
 Need special handling 
 My god, what have we done to you? 
    We always tried to share 
 The tenderest of care 
 Now look what we have put you through.   
 Things get damaged 
 Things get broken 
 I thought we'd manage 
 But words left unspoken 
 Left us so brittle 
 There was so little left to give   
 Angels with silver wings 
 Shouldn't know suffering 
 I wish I could take the pain for you   
 If god has a masterplan 
 That only he understands 
 I hope it's your eyes he's seeing through   
 Things get damaged 
 Things get broken 
 I thought we'd manage 
 But words left unspoken 
 Left us so brittle 
 There was so little left to give   
 I pray you learn to trust 
 Have faith in both of us 
 And keep room in your heart for two   
 Things get damaged 
 Things get broken 
 I thought we'd manage 
 But words left unspoken 
 Left us so brittle 
 There was so little left to give
