Toothpaste

Wise men say just pray

But do they know what it's like to sleep whole nights

In the cold and rain?

As I sing all alone up on a stage of a fallen grace

With a voice and a song in a black shirt

With a toothpaste stain

Can I tell you a secret?

It'll teach you feed that same pain

I'm scared

I'm scared

Oh, but I am not afraid

To spread my wings and fall

As I wash my face and hands in the sink

Of a dance hall bathroom stall

Try not to fight the drunks and strays

As they complain about the way I look and talk

As I make my midnight call, I say

Just meet me on the corner, we should take a walk

And I'll tell you a secret

It'll teach you to face that same thought

I'm scared

I'm scared

Oh, but I am not afraid

Oh no, I am not afraid

Can I tell you a secret?

It'll teach you to face that same pain

I'm scared

I'm scared

Oh, but I am not afraid

Oh no, I am not afraid

Can I tell you a secret?

It'll teach you to face that same pain

I'm scared

But I am not afraid
