i ain't afraid of no ghost





I never was afraid of heights.


its the falling that always scared me.

And I never was too afraid of the future,
until i though about how close it was.


my fears all live in paradoxes

i'm afraid of my potential and i'm afraid that i don't have enough potential
i'm afraid of never being loved and i'm afraid of love
endings have always frightened me and beginnings made me sick

i'm afraid of 18

i'm afraid of never being able to leave this town and i'm afraid of being left behind
i'm afraid of you and i'm afraid of me

and i'm afraid of growing up to be empty
