 Sing
 The simplest  things
 became the hardest part  now
 The easiest  parts have
 taken all my dreams
I'm afraid
 I'll never be okay
 I'm afraid
 I'm scared I
 can't be happy
I'm afraid
 This silence you feel is
 not a way  to be sincere
 (I'm afraid)
 And it's a way  to cope
 A way to heal (I'm scared
 I can't be happy)
 But not  for me when
I  can't feel  (I'm afraid) <-Growl
 The subtleties  that
 make me want to
 (I'll never be okay)
Be  alive and not a
 statue (I'm afraid)
Breathe  the air
 Be me to talk to (I'm scared
 I can't be happy)
I'm  afraid I'll never
be  the same
