Mighty Mighty Bosstones Break So Easily lyrics

You would break so easily
So fragile that it frightens me
A harsh sudden reality
A painful possibility

To see it's like the strangest dream
To be it needs to still be seen
As loud as any noise you've heard
As quiet as a whispered word

Try to answer questions forced
Forced inside of me
You were forced across the line
You're not providing me

You would break so easily
I watched you break so easily
What's it like to be right up against
Not stay on this side of the fence

A line so fine it can't be traced
A life so suddenly erased
Two came through just like a train

A flash and nothing's been the same

Try to answer questions forced
Forced inside of me
You were forced across the line
You're not providing me

Try before I need to
Put the cover on
You took the answers when you broke
So easily you're gone, gone

Once the same until
You broke so easily, tell me then

Try to answer questions forced
Forced inside of me
You were forced across the line
You're not providing me
