"Fragile" lyrics

"Fragile"

My mother was a blind architect, her mother was too
Designing huge walls no man could ever get through, mmh
Born with a brick heart and mortar tongue, they made do
Now the only thing I know is to build those same walls too

Don't you build it too tall
It may never fall
The air's getting thin
You're still human, fragile woman

My mother taught me the way to operate a crane (Ooh, crane)
Carrying heavy loads with a smile through pouring rain
These walls I'd perfected left me unprotected
From that emptiness inside, now
No asking why, just get out while there's still time, baby

Don't you build it too tall
It may never fall
The air's getting thin
You're still human, fragile woman

Armed for destruction
Don't you hurt yourself, girl
No, no, no, no, yeah
Do-do-do, do-do, do-do
Ayy, woo
Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, no, no, no
Hey, woo, woohoo
Woah

Don't you build it too tall
(Don't you, don't you, don't you build it)
It may never fall
The air's getting thin, thin, thin, thin
You're still human, fragile woman
