I have to tighten my eyelids because a girl don't cry But I'm sick and tired of this disrespect That foolishness I have to tighten my eyelids because a girl don't cry But I'm sick and tired of this rudeness So senseless I'm standing in a fragile balance I don't want to lose Walking slippery slopes Still so dazed and confused How dizzy am I, dizzy from trying to get me My head is spinning No weeping no wailing Not a drizzle of tears I'm fragile, fragile Fragile, fragile I have to tighten my eyelids because a girl don't cry But I'm sick and tired of this disrespect That foolishness I have to tighten my eyelids because a girl don't cry But I'm sick and tired of this rudeness So senseless Not a drop of salty water will run down my cheek I feel breakable but I'm not a weak I'm going to drip some water, down on my face, on my brittle bones In a deadly silence, to drench my fragile soul I'm fragile, fragile Fragile, fragile
