Precious and fragile things ..

I suppose it's not hard to divine which song was playing non-stop when I was making this manip; "Precious", by Depeche Mode.

Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My God what have we done to You?

We always try to share
The tenderest of care
Now look what we have put You through

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
....
