Fragile Things

You brought flowers to my place

Angel's hair in a vase

Baby's breath so delicate

I reached in without thinking twice

Cut my finger on the wire

Bled a little, smiled at the sight

The prettiest things hurt the most

That's what I should've known

I cut myself on fragile things

On all the beauty that you bring

Sharp edges hidden in the soft

Learning love comes with a cost

Yeah, I cut myself on you

And I'd do it all again, it's true

That summer in your car

You traced my hand and saw the scar

Asked me why I smiled so wide

I told you some wounds remind us we're alive

You kissed the place it hurt

Made me feel like I was worth it

I cut myself on fragile things

On all the beauty that you bring

Sharp edges hidden in the soft

Learning love comes with a cost

Yeah, I cut myself on you

And I'd do it all again, it's true

Nothing perfect comes without a price

Some scars look better in the light

You're the kind of beautiful that stings

And I wouldn't change a thing

I cut myself on fragile things

On all the beauty that you bring

Sharp edges hidden in the soft

Learning love comes with a cost

Yeah, I cut myself on you

And I'd do it all again, it's true
