And all the words you said

No it's too late for that, now I feel

How was I to know

Like a hammer to my soul

You would break me down so easily

Now baby here I am

Left with half of could have been

Can't help wondering if you feel

A fragile, cracked love

The aftermath of

A fragile, cracked love
