    Afraid

    I’m afraid to open another door.

    Maybe I’m just afraid to open my eyes,

     And behind it, what’s in store?

    Is it another mirage or disguise?


    I’m afraid to know another heart.

    Maybe I’m just afraid to open anew,

    And feeling I’m afraid to start.

    Just asking, “Could it be you?”

     

    I’m afraid of letting go.

    Maybe I should just let it be?

    The old was enough for me to know.

    This something new, it’s just not me…

     

    I’m afraid of feeling this way?

    Maybe I’m just afraid of change?

    My love of then and today

    Am I now completely deranged?

     

    I’m afraid of this mysterious vibe.

    Maybe I’m just too afraid all in all?

    It’s hard to even describe!

    I’m afraid again to fall.
