Scare Easy
Facing Fears: The Haunting Tale in The Spirit League's 'Scare Easy'
Lyrics
I hear this song
I am hearing this particular song.
It plays when I'm alone
The song plays when I'm by myself.
It echoes down the hall
Its sound resonates throughout the hallway.
And through my bones
The music deeply affects me.
I pull the covers tight
I tightly cover myself with blankets.
Cross my heart
I make a promise or swear sincerely.
Knuckles turning white
My knuckles become white due to tension or fear.
I'm afraid to see cause I'll believe
I am hesitant to look because I will believe what I see.
I tell myself I don't scare easy
I convince myself that I'm not easily frightened.
Cause if I turn around it might just see me
Fear of being noticed if I turn around.
I tell myself, I tell myself
I repeatedly reassure myself.
I don't scare easy
Repeated affirmation of not being easily scared.
I tell myself I don't scare easy
Through the crack
I glance through an opening.
I see a pumpkin grin
I see a smiling pumpkin face.
I hear three knocks
I perceive three knocks, perhaps at a door.
And let him in
I allow entry to something represented by "him."
Glowing eyes, burning red
I see eyes shining brightly with a fiery color.
I feel the fright
I experience intense fear.
Too afraid to see cause I'll believe
I'm too scared to look because I might believe what I see.
I tell myself I don't scare easy
Repeated self-reassurance of not being easily scared.
Cause if I turn around it might just see me
Fear of being seen if I turn around.
I tell myself, I tell myself
Continued self-reassurance.
I don't scare easy
Stating again that I am not easily frightened.
I tell myself I don't scare easy
Wing howling
I hear the sound of wind blowing strongly.
Fingers scraping down
I sense something scraping against a surface with fingers.
In the cellar saying now
Voices coming from below, declaring their inability to escape.
You will never get us out
A proclamation of being trapped or held.
I tell myself I don't scare easy
Continued self-convincing of fearlessness.
I tell myself I don't scare easy
Reiteration that I am not easily scared.
I tell myself, I tell myself
Repeated self-affirmation.
I don't scare easy
Emphasizing not being easily frightened.
I tell myself I don't scare easy
Further reaffirmation of bravery.
I tell myself, I tell myself
Continued self-reassurance.
