Don't Be Afraid

you don't like them stepping on you

you don't like they make fun of your name

you don't like they tell you what to do

when you just try to fit in

and they're all laughing

you're left there standing

don't know what to do

[pre-chorus:]

when you feel hurt and afraid

don't show it bothers you

don't give yourself away

eyes keep closing

and your mind's exploding

and your anger's growing

[chorus:]

can you stand up for yourself

don't be afraid

watch out for yourself

don't be afraid

close up your fist

you are not afraid

don't know how it began

don't know who said it

don't know who you can trust

are they lying?

it's hard when you pretend

that they're not pointing

their fingers feel like someone's pushing you

when you feel better afraid

[pre-chorus]

[chorus, repeat chorus]

don't be afraid

don't be afraid

don't run, run, run

feel your eyes keep closing

[pre-chorus]

[chorus, repeat chorus]

don't be afraid
