I'd like to speak my mind
But I'm afraid
I'd like to find the words
To ease the pain
I want to never look
The other way
I want to get this right
But I'm afraid
That things will never change
If I don't change
And I will never change
Until I say
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Even when the truth is hard to say
I'm just saying, don't be afraid
Afraid...
It's easy to be scared
When you're alone
And no one's waiting there
When you get home
I want to feel alive
Down to the bone
I wanna get this right
But I don't know
If things will ever change
If I don't change
And I will never change
Until I say
Don't be afraid
No, Don't be afraid
Even when the truth is hard to say
I'm just saying, don't be afraid
Afraid...
It's harder to be kind
When you're afraid
It's harder to be loved
When you're afraid
It's easy to be cruel
When you're afraid
And its only up to you
To be afraid
And things will never change
If you don't change
And you'll never change
Until you say
