When I woke up I was 17
|
You kissed my lips in a bad bad dream
|
Showed me things aren't what they appear to be
|
Called me angel and set me free
|
You gave me life in the cold cold dark
|
But you ran away in the mornings spark
|
Made me think that reality
|
Is not where I want to be
|
|
I am what I am and
|
I am what I am afraid of
|
Oh what am I afraid of
|
I need a fearless love
|
Don't need to fear the end
|
If you can't hold me now
|
You will never hold me again
|
I want to live my life
|
Pursuing all my happiness
|
I want a fearless love
|
I won't settle for anything less
|
|
I've walked my path had worlds collide
|
I lost my way and I fooled my pride
|
This lover's ache wouldn't feel so strange
|
If I could only change
|
|
But I am what I am and
|
I am what I am afraid of
|
So what am I afraid of
|
I need a fearless love
|
Don't need to fear the end
|
If you can't hold me now
|
You will never hold me again
|
I want to live my life
|
Pursuing all my happiness
|
I want a fearless love
|
I won't settle for anything less
|
|
Now I'm not here to lay the blame
|
I understand when you hold a flame
|
Heads will shake heads will turn
|
And sometimes you just get burned
|
