When I arrived in my old set of clothes
|
I was half a world away from my home
|
And I was hunted by the wolves and I was heckled by the crows
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
Alongside my innocence I laid in bed awake
|
Conflicted and in chains with the impetus of age
|
But like a phantom she crept across the floor and out the window
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
From its place on the mantle my heart was taken down
|
Scattered in a thousand little pieces on the ground
|
And out below the streetlamp like an orphan with a halo
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
'Cause it won't last - your worries will pass
|
All your troubles they don't stand a chance
|
And sometimes it takes more than a lifetime to know
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
Your confidences fall, is your faith etched in stone?
|
Neither can comfort you from the wild unknown
|
So bury your burning hatred like a hatchet in the snow
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
If you have a broken heart or a battered soul
|
Find something to hold on to or to let go
|
To help you through the hard nights like a flask filled with hope
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
'Cause it won't last - your worries will pass
|
All your troubles they don't stand a chance
|
And it always hurts the worst when it's the ones we love the most
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
Sometimes your path is marked in the sky
|
Sometimes you're forced to fit in between the lines
|
Sometimes all that you can do is say no
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
I said, when I arrived in my old set of clothes
|
I was half a world away from my home
|
And I was hunted by the wolves and I was heckled by the crows
|
Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
|
I said, Darlin' do not fear what you don't really know
|
We said, Darlin' do not fear
|
