Afraid of Myself

Just you and me, hey
You and me
We're just one, without each other there's none

I used to be afraid of dying
Now of living while being dead
Being another character in the sims
Getting up every day just for a damn paycheck

I was scared of people's opinions
That they make up things and don't care how you feel
But I realized at the end of this maze
That the most toxic relationship I had was with myself

And it's that instinct is treacherous
It screams crazy things until none scare you
There are only two options if you want to stay sane
Run from your demons or start to understand them

Drunk amidst so much darkness and so many guards
The price of happiness is ignorance
Maybe it's already late and my mind is lost
Time has grown tired of healing our wounds

Just you and me, hey
You and me
We're just one, without each other there's none
Just you and me, hey
You and me
I'm scared of what I have, so deep inside me

I'm not afraid of life
Afraid of whys
But now you're on my way
No, I'm not afraid of time
Afraid of lies
But burning in my chest
Afraid of myself

I used to be afraid of not being loved
And now of falling in love too much
Of having to open up to another person
And jot down in the diary another one who betrayed me

They're scared that something might happen to them
And I'm terrified that nothing will ever happen to me
I'm bleeding out in the Roman coliseum
And you're enjoying yourself masturbating from the stands

But I get home
And the audience is gone
The sound of silence that leaves you naked
Lost, just you and me
But this is a gift and a senseless curse

It won't be so bad if it feels good
The cold of the barrel brushing my temple
Let's make way for the chorus
I'm the gun and you pull the trigger

I'm not afraid of life
Afraid of whys
But now you're on my way
No, I'm not afraid of time
Afraid of lies
But burning in my chest
Afraid of myself

You now
Sometimes you're not scared of anything
But yourself
If we wanna' now where we're goin'
We need to understand
Where we come from
