I’m scared that the future could turn out worse than the past
That over my head a permanent cloud has been cast
Maybe this is the way my whole life is gonna be
I wish there was a light in my future that I could see

I wonder if I should be afraid of sounds in the night
And if the shadows be revealed in the mornings light
There’s no one by my side to protect me from danger
For everyone in my life has turned into a stranger
Sometimes people question the smile that I fake
But I know that letting it fade would be a mistake

I’m scared that I won’t be able to hang on
That maybe I’m just not that strong
I already feel fear sneaking back into my soul
And inside I know I’ll pay the toil
For I try and hide all my pain
Sometimes it’s easier to just take the blame

My hearts afraid to let someone in
And I don’t know if that’s a battle I can win
Now that I’ve been hurt a time or two
I’m scared to open up to someone new
I’m scared to be with anyone but you
