Fearfully

I’m afraid that nobody will ever give a damn,

But I’m afraid of people knowing who I am.

I’m not afraid of the next step I should take as much as I’m afraid of the inevitable mistake.

Because I have lived my life so fearfully. Chained myself up voluntarily.

I’m afraid I already waited to long, and if I tried I’d probably get it all wrong.

I’m afraid I’ve set myself up to fall, and if I won I’d probably lose it all

Because I have lived my life so fearfully. Chained myself up voluntarily.

Yes I have lived my life so fearfully. Held myself back intentionally.

Keep hidden, stay covered. Safest undiscovered.

No risk means no failing. Life’s safe unavailing.

Just get by. Let time fly.

Because I have lived my life so fearfully. Chained myself up voluntarily.

Yes I have lived my life so fearfully. Held myself back intentionally.

Until I live my life more fearlessly I’ll only be part of what I can be.
