"Fragile Fantasy" lyrics

"Fragile Fantasy"

My heart's breaking
I've been waiting
For a face in the sun
A place where I thought I'd become

If I could change
The city for the strange

Would I look the same
Or would you turn away
My pretty smiling face
Is only gonna fade
If I keep kicking at the ground
Closed mouth
But anyway
It won't be the same
Even if you stay

Fire breather
Whispering leave her
On the wings of a dove
Oh, how does it look from above

If I could be
Without apologies

Would I look the same
Or would you turn away
My pretty smiling face
Is only gonna fade
If I keep kicking at the ground
Closed mouth
But anyway
It won't be the same
Even if you stay

I know its hard to do
When it takes over you
This fragile fantasy
Will only break on me

Would I look the same
Or would you turn away
My pretty smiling face
Is only gonna fade
If I keep kicking at the ground
Closed mouth
But anyway
It won't be the same
Even if you stay
