lyrics

I do not believe (I trust every word.)
What you're constantly (Unquestioningly.)
Telling me to see. (You're persuading me.)
I'll never agree. (Had me at "let's talk".)

People never change. (Actually they do.)
Never ever change. (Changing all the time.)
So set in their ways. (Chasing every craze.)
Don't learn from their mistakes. (Almost learn too well.)

I'm so fragile, I crumble from half-sincere “I Love You”s.
I'm so strong, I'll keep living long after there's any reason to.

I should be doing more. (You need time to rest.)
There's always more to do. (This will not end well.)
I'm trying to progress. (Don't take that too far.)
I have to do my best. (Do you all the time?)

There will always be (There'll always be what?)
Things we cannot see. (How can we know that?)
Things we can perceive (Yes, obviously.)
Not empirically. (Obviously not.)

I'm so fragile, I grumble when I get told what to do.
I'm so strong, I'll keep going long after there's any reason to.

Karen, how did you know what was important?
Karen, how did you manage to live a life
Where you found your joy
In hardly thinking one thought of yourself?

So fragile.
So strong.
So set in my ways.
