What Scares Me

Old Line

Five O’Clock People

Maybe you’ll never know why

I stare off into silence sometimes.

Maybe you’ll never see,

Maybe that’s what scares me.

I’m afraid of the times

When my honesty becomes unkind

I’ll learn to justify the words that my actions deny

It’s the same old line.

If it makes you happy

I’ll say that I’m fine.

It’s the same old line

Look in my eyes and I’ll lie every time.

The more that I try to explain

Only the questions remain

Take these words that I say and wash them all away

It’s the same old line.

If it makes you happy

I’ll say that I’m fine.

It’s the same old line

Look in my eyes and I’ll lie every time.

Maybe you’ll never see,

Maybe you’ll never see,

Maybe that’s what scares me.
