Look what we've made from melted sand
Expert drawings, expert plans
Let the reader understand
It's a delicate triumph
Here in this city of glass
Fragile walls can tumble fast
All it takes is just one crack
Proceed with caution
We built this thing together
We hoped it would last forever
Oh, so fragile
And so beautiful
Oh, please be careful
Please, please don't let it fall down
Please don't be so cavalier
We can't be throwing stones in here
The bull in the china shop is fear
Best to move slowly
Things aren't always as they seem
Interpreting reality
Are these lies or prophecies
Time will tell
We - we're interconnected
Let's fix the fractures we've detected
Oh, so fragile
And so beautiful
Oh, please be careful
Please, please don't let it fall
Oh, things can break so quickly
Come tumbling to the ground
Oh, try to tread lightly
Please, let's not mess around
Oh please, please don't let it fall down
