I'm Scared

The Angels - I'm Scared

Brewster-Neeson-Brewster)

When you wake up naked in the supermarket

trying to wash the stains off your nicotine habit

the sign on the wall reads " serve yourself"

with no one there to cover you

they try to make you grab it

"the tonight" show on closed circuit TV

close investigation shows the star is me

making jokes about your m-m-mental health

no names mentioned -- look at yourself

Who's there? security! got the drop on me

I'm scared of sleeping at night

I'm tired of running away

I'm scared, turn on the light

and I'm scared of feeling scared

When the telephone is ringing in the dead of night

it's the fire department calling

wanna know if I'm alright

I tell them not to hurry

there's no need to be concerned

the fire that you heard about is already burned!

I'm scared of sleeping at night

I'm tired of running away

I'm scared, turn on the light

and I'm scared of feeling scared

Time will come to carry your fears away

they'll fade like a dream at the break of day

but every night the dream's the same

scenes I never see

peace of mind's been a long time coming

hope it's coming to me

I'm scared to be...

I'm scared

I'm scared of feeling scared

I'm tired of feeling tired
