Letra de
Fragile

Fragile fue escrita por Sting reflexionando sobre la muerte prematura de un amigo americano, Ben Linder, quien muriĆ³ en Nicaragua mientras intentaba ayudar a solucionar los problemas de suministro de agua durante la guerra civil. La letra trata sobre la fragilidad de la vida y un mensaje de paz.

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence
and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
