Dont be afraid of the dark


Don’t be afraid to walk this way

Don’t be afraid of life

Don’t be afraid to try new things 

Don’t be afraid of light.

Darkness might make you scared

But that doesn’t mean you have to be

Being happy might end in pain

But it’s worth it when you finally see

Finally, see what I’ve been telling you all along

Ringing the doorbell *ding dong*

The door opens but nobody’s there

Probably cause you just walked into your own space up there 

That house is not a home 

It’s your mind

People are going to break down the walls 

Shatter the windows

But it’s up to you to fix them

Don’t be afraid of the fight.

Darkness is not fear

Your mind is what makes you tear

So don’t be afraid of the dark.
