Lyrics
Afraid Of The Dark
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
People who are afraid of the dark
Send their children to bed and stay out all night
While they lie
Their lives are in safe keeping
They roam the corners of night
Afraid of the dark
So they can't see the light sleeping
