When You're Scared

(album: Please Come Home... Mr. Bulbous - 2000)

It's really easy to hate everyone
When you're scared, oh-oh
Making comparisons
Faking your friends
When you're scared, oh-oh

Then comes the day
Everything's taken away
Everyone's shame is the same

If she gives me a sword and a lake
Will I mistake it
If she hands me my head on a plate
How will I take it
If I'm scared

It's really easy to take all the blame
When you're scared, oh-oh
All of your ornaments fall to the floor
When you're scared, oh-oh

All the decisions to make
All of your life is at stake
Under your feet there's a quake

If she gives me a sword and a lake
Will I mistake it
If she hands me my head on a plate
How will I take it?
If I'm scared

Love twisted to break
And it's your life that you hate
Nothing is easy to take

If she gives me a sword and a lake
Will I mistake it
When she hands me my head on a plate
Then will I break it?
If I'm scared
