When did I become this intimidated girl? I used to be so confident, a ruler of the world. I never held in any fear, I always played it back I never thought that there was anything I lacked. But now I look around and I am troubled so to see That deep down inside there is no confidence in me. I am fearful of the future, afraid of my past Afraid that what I treasure most will never ever last. I am afraid of growing old and ending up alone Afraid to trust my emotions, afraid of the unknown. Afraid that if I stop to enjoy this one sweet day It could be my last, and I'll just waste away. I'm frightened by my need and don't know where to turn Because I know that when I go I won't get to return. I want to give myself to you and never fear again But I am so afraid; I'm so weary of you men. If you could only see the fear I have inside Maybe then you'd understand why I run and hide. |
