You talk and then you whisper
When you should smile, you cry
You stand and then you crawl
Words you hate to say: I'm afraid

You are, and I used to be
Afraid of the dark and what lingers in it

You said it's o.k., but your eyes betray
themselves
You can't escape, unless you face
it head on

Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be...

You see, things that shouldn't exist
When it's already late, you cannot sleep
You think, that nobody understands
When you close your eyes, they linger
...with you

You said it's o.k., but your eyes betray
themselves
You can't escape, unless you face
it head on

Don't be...

You said it's o.k., but your eyes betray
themselves
You can't escape, unless you face
it head on
