| I was thinking that I might fly today |
| Just to disprove all the things that you say |
| It doesn’t take a talent to be mean |
| Your words can crush things that are unseen |
| So please be careful with me, I’m sensitive |
| And I’d like to stay that way |
| You always tell me that it’s impossible |
| To be respected, and be a girl |
| Why’s it gotta be so complicated |
| Why you gotta tell me if I’m hated |
| Oh please be careful with me, I’m sensitive |
| And I’d like to stay that way |
| I was thinking, that it might do some good |
| If we robbed the cynics and took all their food |
| That way what they believe will have taken place |
| And we’d give it to everybody who’ll have some faith |
| So please be careful with me, I’m sensitive |
| And I’d like to stay that way |
| I have this theory, that if we’re told we’re bad |
| Then that’s the only idea we’ll ever have |
| But maybe if we are surrounded in beauty |
| Someday we will become what we see |
| 'Cause anyone can start a conflict |
| It’s harder yet to disregard it |
| I’d rather see the world from another angle |
| We are everyday angels |
| Be careful with me 'cause I’d like to stay that way |
