Dione - Fragile World
“FRAGILE WORLD” Just think about what you have heard and seen in this world; you will surely come to agree with me that strange things are happening in this world. When I first wrote down the lyrics of this song, the original version says “Evil World” but this was hard for me to accept so I tried to make it less cruel by changing “Evil World” to “Fragile World”. But what if the things we refuse to believe are true? What if the things we can’t see are real? Strange things are happening in this world; What if the world is really evil? Let God’s goodness and mercy locate us as we listen to the lyrics of my new song ‘FRAGILE WORLD’
