Lyrics
I'm afraid I'll never be
I have a fear that I will never possess
Strong enough to carry me
The strength required to support myself
Such a long and desert ride
It's a challenging and lonely journey
So quick ahead, so few beside
Moving forward quickly with few companions
I don't think I've ever felt
I don't recall experiencing
A peace when I am by myself
A sense of peace when I'm alone
These darker rooms and silences
In darker rooms and silences
Leave most of us afraid, I guess
Many of us feel fear
And hoping with each passing mess
Hoping that with each difficulty
We'll feel it all a little less
We'll gradually feel less emotional pain
Hoping with each passing mess
Repeating the hope for diminished pain
We'll feel it all a little less
Reiterating the hope for diminished pain
The best things are the hardest sell
The most valuable things are challenging to sell
We mostly love, then run like hell
We often love and then run away
It's easier to let it go
It's easier to let go of something
To leave before you're left alone
Before facing the prospect of being left alone
So every friend looks like a foe
Every friend appears as an adversary
And every bow feels like blow
Every gesture of goodwill feels like a betrayal
So every friend looks like a foe
Reiterating that every friend seems like a foe
And every bow feels like blow
Reiterating that every gesture feels hurtful
Maybe I've said far too much
Perhaps I've revealed too much
These stories aren't for young and trusting
These stories are not suitable for the young and trusting
Little souls who fall asleep
Children who fall asleep
With foes and blows drawn in their dreams
With dreams filled with enemies and conflicts
So take a breath and let it be
Take a breath and accept things as they are
We'll say it's all just make-believe
We'll pretend it's all just imagination
Take a breath and let it be
Take a breath and accept things as they are
We'll say it's all just make-believe
We'll pretend it's all just imagination
I'm afraid I'll never be
I still fear that I lack
Strong enough to carry me
The strength needed to support myself
I don't mean to frighten you
I don't intend to scare you
Just need someone to say it to
I just need someone to confide in
