Lyrics

Scared

I wanna touch you, but I'm scared
I really love you though, I swear
I dread the moment you're not there
I need your hands in my hair, hair

Morning comes, here's another exercise for your mind
Keep the shakes out of view
Meditate, internalize, here's something that you can try
Oh, I need a few

I wanna touch you, but I'm scared
I really love you though, I swear
I dread the moment you're not there
I need your hands in my hair, hair

Morning comes, calm your nerves, take a breath, what have you learned?
Oh, don't let it show
Shining on the outside, failure sure can crystallize
Oh, help me break through

I wanna touch you, but I'm scared
I really love you though, I swear
I had another nightmare
Covered in sweat and unprepared

I woke and you weren't there (scared)
You weren't, you weren't there (scared)
You're not, you're not there (scared)
You're not, you're not there (scared)
You're not, you're not there

Wish I wasn't scared
Wish I wasn't scared
Wish I wasn't scared
Wish I wasn't scared
