I'm Not Scared


Ghosts, witches, werewolves are childish

Alright, I’m going to leave then

No, don’t go

 

Why do you not talk to her then

I’m not scared

Why don’t you apply here then

I’m not scared

Why don’t you ask for an invite

I’m not scared

Why don’t you run faster

I’m not scared

 

I’m too busy or I would

Yet I question my manhood

 

I don’t even care

But here it is in my nightmare

 

You do it

Although I wish I could do it

 

Fear

Why don’t you let me live
