This song was written when I was in a relationship that was ending. The person wanted to remain friends and this was my way of telling them that it was too painful to be friends because I was in love with them.

Lyrics
Oh you had me from the start, with one look you cut right through my heart
I know you didn't realize, cause I'm good and I know how to hide
You say I'm so strong that I'm like steel, cause I've been fighting so long, but these wounds won't heal
I need you to take care, I need you to be kind, cause when it comes to you, you may be surprised
That I am fragile, and I am weak
If you wanted to you could break me
Cause I am fragile and I am weak
And if you wanted to you could break me
When you look me in the eye, you've got me frozen, it's like I'm paralyzed
I've always been so good with words
But you get me, you hit me where it hurts
You say I'm so strong that I'm like steel, cause I've been fighting so long, but these wounds won't heal
I need you to take care, I need you to be kind, cause when it comes to you, you may be surprised
That I am fragile, and I am weak
If you wanted to you could break me
Cause I am fragile and I am weak
And if you wanted to you could break me
Cause I am fragile and I am weak
And if you wanted to you could break me
Cause I am fragile and I am weak
And if you wanted to you could break me
Oh if you wanted to you could break me
