Fragile Friend
[Verse 1]
I've been away for a long while
The holidays made a change
Ooh but the bit of me that you revile
Is diffused in this exchange
I knew you then, you were a good friend
Swapping books and clothes and things
Your incessant smile is marred with sin
But it strains with the happy within

[Chorus]
Don't push me fragile friend
Don't let me down
I'd snap hard back at you
And hurt a fragile friend
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
Your fragile friend is desperate
To learn the tricks of the trade
To catch up fast with all his friends
Who left him on parade
This fragile friend isn't perfect
All the grapes in his mind are going sour
Learning the rules as he plays it
How much his smile has the power
[Chorus]
Don't push me fragile friend
Don't let me down
I'd snap hard back at you
And hurt a fragile friend
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, yeah yeah yeah

Don't push me fragile friend
Don't let me down
I'd snap hard back at you
And hurt a fragile friend
Don't let me down
Don't let me down, yeah yeah yeah
