Fragile Flame

   Fat boy goes to the pool
   sees his reflection, doesn't know what to do
   He feels little inside
   filled with pride
   oh fragile flame
   no one sees the same
   
   Fat boy goes about his day
   trying to think of funny things to say
   like this is just a game I play
   and I like me this way
   oh fragile flame
   no one feels the same
   
   Hush, sleep
   don't think, just guess
   Yuo're momma's little boy
   you're daddy's pride and joy
   you know they love
   but not because they hold you
   
   Fat boy says "wouldn't it be nice, if I could mealt myself like ice or
   
   outrun my skin just to be pure"
   oh fragile flame
   sometimes I feel the same
