Afraid
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.
If love is blind then why do I see you
I see you in everything I do?
If love takes time then why am I rushing it
Your sweeping up the mess I got in
All you say brings me back again
No questions, nothing to defend
All this change, has me loosing ground
But in your arms I'm safe and sound
You loved me when the industry was cold
You loved me when I had someone else to hold
You loved me every second, every day, but I was afraid
I was afraid.
If love is kind then why am I bleeding through
Bleeding through everything I do
If love is mind then why am I loosing you
You strung the wrong girl out to dry
Don't dig down, don't hurt yourself
I'll do it, do without your help
Do reach out, don't push me back
And keep you empty promises
You loved me when the industry was cold
You loved me when I had someone else to hold
You loved me every second, every day, but I was afraid
I'd crawl... I'd crawl
I would've painted my nails for you
Dawned a veil for you
But everything I do is wrong
I'm losing all control
I'm down on all fours be strong, strong.
But you loved me when the industry was cold
You loved me when I had someone else to hold
You loved me every second, every day, but I was afraid
I was afraid.
