Lyrics


There?s nothing you can do, she said
To change the situation
She flicked the cards and placed them on the table.

I have no reason to keep your dream alive
In a world that?s always changing, why should I care?

Terrified
Fragile paper-thin
Fragile, spider web
In a world that?s always changing
Can I keep my dreams alive?

Do you believe in destiny,
are you a prisoner of fate?
Can forty bucks buy you the answers
You can?t afford to contemplate?
How righteous are the gurus
in their quiet little lives.
How fragile are our spider dreams
In the middle of the night.

Fragile, paper-thin
Fragile, spider web
Terrified
Fragile, paper-thin
Fragile, spider web
