When I Was Afraid Songtext

von The Thermals

Time kept me in line
Kepe me defined
It kept me safe
When I was afraid
Kept me in line
Kept me defined
It kept me safe
When I was afraid

Counting the days
Pacing the sky
Holding every breath
I have left inside

Gravity I can't forget
You saved my heart
A thousand ways
Gravity I can't forgive
You let me go
I felt the weight
When I was afraid

Falling away
Out into space
Losing all my breath
When I was afraid

Fear is fire
Fear is by my side
It kept me well, yeah
It kept me alive
I counted days
But they faded away
I only felt safe
When I was afraid

Love it held me near
You held me close
I couldn't die
When I was afraid
You held me near
I couldn't die
I couldn't live
When I was afraid

Counting the days
Pacing the sky
Holding every breath
I have left

Fear was mine
Fear was by my side
It kept me well
Hell, it kept me alive

I counted days
That I made it away
I only felt safe
When I was afraid

Fear was mine
Fear was by my side
It kept me well
Hell, it kept me alive

I counted days
That I made it away
I only felt safe
When I was afraid
