lyrics

speak as softly as you can with your hands out
like you're approaching a wild dog
saying, "please don't run away." but it's too late
it's so easy to destroy but so hard to create

the ideas we cradle softly, nestled safe and sound
we so quickly surrender when no one is around
and when we take these things off the shelf
we can polish it and dust it but nothing really helps
it will crumble to the floor without a peep
all the fragments and debris start clawing at your feet
i don't know what to build with this
i don't know what to build with this

always, always running your mouth
takes so long to contain what should never come out
little secrets piled each and every way
slowly falling down crushing all in its wake
gather the pieces, stack them up again
glue and tape and staples - anything to help it mend
each time i get cruder and easier to break
it's so easy to destroy but so hard to create
