All My Fears On You

(Album: Grace Street - 2017)

Pace around the back room of my place
I'm flipping through the script I can't erase
I'm turning every verse and chapter
I'm the author and the actor
It's never meant that much to me

'Cause I've placed all my fears on you
And there's so much more to lose
When holding back gets in the way
I'm only trying to keep you safe
From all the things I thought I'd never do
'Cause I've placed all my fears on you

Lazy afternoon in the park
You're like a fire in the dark
There's something just beneath the surface
That's trying to give the past a purpose
It's never meant that much to me

'Cause I've placed all my fears on you (don't go away... go away...)
There's so much more to lose (don't go away...)
When holding back gets in the way
I'm only trying to keep you safe
From all the things I thought I'd never do
And now I'm finally finding out
All the things I've gone without
So many things I thought I'd never do

I'm turning every verse and chapter
I'm the author and the actor
It's never meant that much to me
'Cause I've placed all my fears on you (don't go away... go away...)
There's so much more to lose (don't go away...)

(So far away...)
