Afraid

Afraid I'll be tired
So I just stay in bed
Afraid I'll sound silly
So I hang my head
Afraid it will hurt
And I don't want to cry
Afraid I'll fail
So I don't even try
Afraid of pain
So I play it safe
Afraid of change
So I just stay in place
Afraid of my past
So I try to hide
Afraid they'll know
So instead I lie
Keep it superficial
In case I don't belong
Afraid they'll notice
When I'm not feeling strong
A life of fear
Is trapped inside my head
So instead of living
I'm living like I'm dead
