“fragile” is about someone wanting to love another person but not being able to due to their own personal issues. They want to be in a stable relationship but they’re too emotionally fragile to take that responsibility on.
[Verse 1: Wrenn]
I'm sorry you saw me shaking
Stay with me for a day
I've got no one to hold me
Cause I, I turn them all away
[Pre-Chorus: Wrenn]
I don't wanna be alone
But I'm better on my own
[Chorus: gnash & Wrenn]
Cause I'm fragile
God, I'm fragile
[Verse 2: gnash]
I'm sorry you saw me breaking
But stay with me don't stray
God, I wish you would hold me closely
Don't think I don't feel the same
[Pre-Chorus: gnash]
I'm better on my own
But I don't wanna be alone
[Chorus: gnash & Wrenn]
Cause I'm fragile
God, I'm fragile
[Bridge: gnash & Wrenn]
God, I wish I could love you
God, I wish I could love you
God, I wish I could love you
God, I wish I could love you
[Chorus: gnash & Wrenn]
Cause I'm fragile
God, I'm fragile
