Fears

I'm afraid of heights, I got that from my mother
I don't want mountains, I'm a child of the sea
I'm afraid of being alone, facing myself
It took me thirty years to finally say "I love you"
 
I fear nothingness, I'm afraid of lacking
And I know what it's like when there's nothing left to eat
I'm afraid of death, but you know, I believe in God
I tell myself that I'm wrong, that up there, it will be better
 
I'm afraid to love you, I love too much
I won't count, but when I love, it's too beautiful
I can die from it, alone on the ground
I cried from it as a fetus on the ground
 
I'm afraid of my tears, because I'm afraid of drowning
I'm too afraid of weapons since he got killed
I'm afraid of everything, the best and the worst
I'm afraid of being insane, but I'm more afraid of saying it
 
I'm not gonna leave, too much to sing
Too much to say, too much to shout
 
I'm afraid it will end, but I won't lie to you
I'm also afraid it will explode and I won't pull through
I'm afraid to be loved for who I'm not
That one day, everything falls apart, and no one wants me anymore
 
I'm afraid to lose you since I became a dad
I understand my father, and I know he's afraid for me
I'm afraid of hurting, not being good enough
Afraid of this world, of letting go of your hand
 
I'm afraid of yesterday, of all my mistakes
I'm afraid of tomorrow, yeah, I'm afraid ahead of time
I'm afraid that you resemble me, that life is hard
That you're too sensitive, maybe a bit too pure
 
I'm afraid to stop writing this song
Because I know it's the last one, but I don't want to overdo it
I'm afraid of goodbyes—we know they're true
I'm afraid of getting better and not doing anything afterward
 
I'm not gonna leave, too much to sing
Too much to say, too much to shout
I'm not gonna leave, too much to sing
Too much to say, too much to shout
