Scared

(album: Let Yourself In - 2008)

Standing outside, looking out for me
I know I've done nothing wrong
There's plenty of time for us to see
Start cleaning up the mess we've done
We keep on living our lives with stupidity
As if we've got something to lose
So much selfish tranquility
Just for the sake of trying nothing new

And I
Think I
Should be the one to make a stand, because

Everybody is scared
Everybody is scared sometimes

Time goes by and it seems to me
It's easy just to come and go
Well, turns out nothing comes for free
Our children live the seeds we sow
Pretend now
The fire burned out, now it's you and me
Still we've got nothing to lose
So much selfish tranquility
Just for the sake of trying nothing new

And I
Think I
Should be the one to make a stand, because

Everybody is scared
Everybody is scared sometimes

Every time I close my eyes
This pain is killing me
And I try to take it down
Put my feet back on the ground
Just to know you're still with me
Just remember girl
Although it's easier to say goodbye
Feels like a bullet in my heart
To know we're throwing away the good times, because

Everybody is scared sometimes
