Humans Are Fragile Things

​

You bought me a bottle of wine
The week I left my old life
I thought that was awfully kind
A nice way to say goodbye

I drank that bottle last night
And woke up this morning to find
My friend on the other line
I could hear the tears in her eyes

I wouldn't accept
It when you said
You were glad that we met if I'd known that
This was what you meant

I'm just imagining
How bad things had to have been
For this to be happening
Humans are fragile things
I hope you're happier
And that you're no longer battling
It's just so sad to think that
Humans are fragile things

I ask myself if I
Were a better friend would you be alive?
Is there sense in asking why
If I can't turn back the time?

But now I say bye to everyone
Whenever I leave an event
Just to quit in a month
Once I take life for granted again

I'm just imagining
How bad things had to have been
For this to be happening
Humans are fragile things
I hope you're happier
And that you're no longer battling
It's just so sad to think that
Humans are fragile things

You were my friend
But you never let
Me in on the mess
Plaguing your head

I'm just imagining (you were my friend)
How bad things had to have been (but you never let)
For this to be happening (me in on the mess)
Humans are fragile things (plaguing your head)
I hope you're happier (you were my friend)
And that you're no longer battling (but you never let)
It's just so sad to think that (me in on the mess)
Humans are fragile things (plaguing your head)
