I’m afraid to live
and I’m afraid to die
I’ve got so much to give
and I don’t know why
I settle for less
when I want it all
I could climb so high
still I take the fall
Every time for you
It’s just no good
Tell me what to do
So it’s understood
I could grab it
If it weren’t out of reach
I could learn it
If only they’d teach
I could fake it
If I knew how to act
I could take it
If they knew the facts
I won’t let it take
the best part of me
I’ll bend, but not break
from my anxiety
Just wasting away
Inside my soul
Any moment now
I could lose control
How nice it would be
if life were fair
So much awaits me
but I just don’t dare
What if I lose hope
and never break through
So afraid to love
More afraid not to
Because I believe
though I know not why
That I wasn’t born
with wings that won’t fly
No more will I come
each time you call
Now that I know I can fly
fly before I fall
