Much Afraid
Empty again
Sunken down so far
So scared to fall
I might not get up again
So I lay at your feet
All my brokenness
I carry all of my burdens to you
[Chorus:]
All of these things
I've held up in vain
No reason nor rhyme
Just the scars that remain
Of all of these things
I'm so much afraid
Scared out of my mind
By the demons I've made
Sweet Jesus

Where We Stand
[Intro - Chorus]
Is it too soon to love you
Why do I believe it's perfect
Could it be I'm scared to take a chance
Think that we are moving too fast
And I don't know where we stand (I don't know where we stand)
[Faith]
Today you said some things to me
That made it plain for me to see
And now I do believe
That there's a chance for you and me
Elated I would be
If it became reality
I'll put away my fears
Cause only fait brought us here
[Chorus]
Is it too soon to love you
When i just meet you the other day
Why do believe it's perfect
Enspired by all the things you say
Could it be I'm scared to take a chance
Think that we are moving fast
And I don't know where we stand (I don't know where we stand)
[Faith]
It's just a few days but I'm open wide
Or maybe I should take my time
I think where moving fast but I want you bad
My mind is telling me one thing
But my body says another
I wanna be your lover
[Chorus]
Is it too soon to love you
When I just met you the other day
Why do I believe it's perfect
Enspired by all the things you say
Could it be I'm scared to take a chance
Think that we are moving to fast
And I don't know where we stand (I don't know where we stand)
[Faith]
It's hard to figure out
In the back of my mind there's so much doubt
Why do I look for clues
When there's no reason to question you
It's only natural
I Just gotta wait and see
Will we ever be
Will we ever be
[Chorus]
Tell me if it's too soon to love
When i just met you the other day
Could it be that I'm scared to take a chance
Deep inside I don't know where we stand
Is it too soon to love you
When I just met you the other day
Why do I believe it's perfect
Enspired by all the things you say
Could it be I'm scared to take a chance
Think that we are moving fast
And I don't know where we stand (I don't know where we stand)
Is it too soon to love you
Why do I believe it's perfect
Could it be I'm scared to take a chance
And I don't know where we stand (I don't know where we stand)

Scared
I'm scared of life and what i'll become
I'm scared of not being able to go on
I'm scared of what will happen
I'm scared of your reaction
I'm scared of letting go
I'm scared of what i don't know
I'm scared of losing you
I'm scared of being used
I'm scared of being hurt beyond repair
I'm scared of whats out there
I'm scared and so alone
I'm scared and searching for a place to call home
Will you hold me and fight away my fears
Will you tell me it's gonna be okay and wipe away my tears
Will you hold my hand as i walk through the dark
Will you stay and not leave or break my heart
Will you be there to pick me up when i fall down
Because i really need someone right now

Walk Away (Maybe)
I made this bed
I choose to lie in it
And live with my regrets
And sleep with what I said
Could this be the end
Am I standing on the edge
Of everything I wanted now
I was afraid
I was afraid
Well maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I fear
It's easier to walk away from everything
Separate my soul
With all the things we shared
I'm falling to pieces now
Say a prayer for me (say a prayer for me)
When you go to bed ('cause)
I'm in need of your faith now
I was afraid
Well maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I fear
It's easier to walk away from everything
If we could just re-set
And live in happiness
Instead of our regrets
We'd salvage everything
We don't have to walk away
Pray for me now
I'm in need of faith
Pray for me now
I'm in need
And maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I feared
It's easier to walk away from everything
If we could just re-set
And live in happiness
Instead of our regrets
We'd salvage everything
And maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I failed
It's easier to walk away from everything
Walk away from everything
Walk away from everything

Run To Me
Verse 1:
Run to me when you need someone to talk to
Run to me when youre alone and you need a friend
Run to me when youre without and you need some love girl
And when youre lonely inside and you forget how to smile
Run to me and Ill keep you safe from harm
Chorus:
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
You know you can run to me when you need to cry
Never hesitate
Never be afraid
You know you can run to me and Ill keep you safe
I just wanna be the one
You can turn to
Verse 2:
Run to me when you need someone to count on
Come to me when you got something on your mind
Run to me when everything starts to fall apart
And when its bringing you down
And no one else can be found
Ill be waiting for you with open arms
Chorus:
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
You know you can run to me when you need to cry
Never hesitate
Never be afraid
You know you can run to me and Ill keep you safe
I just wanna be the one
You can turn to
Bridge:
One thing you need to know
One thing I promise you
Ill be there for you for always
One thing you need to know
You need to know is true
I do it out of the love for you
Chorus:
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
You know you can run to me when you need to cry
Never hesitate
Never be afraid
You know you can run to me and Ill keep you safe
Dont be scared
Dont ever be shy
I just wanna be the one you can turn to
Run to me
Run to me

Walk Away

And I live with my regrets
I sleep with what I said
Could this be the end
Am I standing on the edge
Of everythng I wanted now
But I was afraid

And maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I feel
It's easier to walk away from everything
Seperate my soul
With all the things we shared

Say a prayer for me
When you go to bed
I'm in need of your faith now
But I was afraid
And maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I feel

Jesus Christ I'm Not Scared To Die...
Jesus Christ I'm not scared to die
but I'm a little scared what comes before
will I sin, will i commit that which you abhor?
can i stay strong and true, or defy
you, even you my God and my first love
will i succumb to desire and lust or set my heart on things above?
I do not fear death
I practically long for that day on which I draw the last breath
when I finally see you face to face
but can I be a good example for as long as I live?
or will I fall from grace
and yet what can I do you shall not forgive?
I pray to you my Lord that you give me strength
to continue to follow you, because what i fear most
is not the sting of death, but the length
I must strive to follow you without being morose
but sharing your love and joy and gospel
to save the world from hell
but i don't trust myself
Jesus Christ I'm not scared to die
but I'm a little bit scared what comes before...

Am I Getting Through, Parts I & II
Part I:
I am strong
I am able
I spill milk on your table
Then I crawl like a baby
Just to see if you save me
I am sweet
I am ugly
I am mean if you love me
I'll try hard just to please you
When I say I don't need you
I dress up with a conscience
When I think you'll be watching
I say all the right things
I don't know what I mean
[Chorus]
Am I
Am I
Getting Through
Am I
Am I
Getting Through
I am ignorant and rude
I am fashionably crude
And sometimes when it's quiet
I'm an angel in white
When I pose in the mirror
I want everyone near me
I am scared that I'm weird
I'm afraid I am queer
I am lovely and weak
I am foul when I speak
I am strange when I'm kind
I am frying my mind
Chorus
I don't care, I don't care
Jesus loves me I know
For my mom told me so
I'm a loser at love
I'm a flower in the mud
Chorus Twice
Part II:
Don't you hate it
When the money starts to running out
Your esoteric rants
Were made to twist and shout
I heard you moved
Now you're hangin on the Moulin Rouge
Don't you know no matter where you go
Somebody's always watching you
That's what they say
That's what they say
When the pages fade the love you made
Will seem one hundred light years away
That's what they say
That's what they say

Do You Want Me
I cry like a baby when I don't get my way
Do you want me?
I won't apologize when I make a mistake
Do you want me?
I got scars on my heart and they won't go away
Looking for someone to take them from me
Everybody knows I'm a little insane
Do you want me?
Oh I try to be normal
I try to put one foot in front of the other
And I feel
You don't even know I'm alive
I open my mouth
Cause I'm waiting for your love to fall from the sky
And I feel
You think that I'm out of my mind
And maybe your scared to be right
But you'll never know till you get me alone
Do you want me?
I tell it to you straight so we can't get worse
Do you want me?
I want to show you me but first things first
Do you want me?
Looking for a saviour to save my soul
All the damage that I have done has left a big hole
Everybody knows I just want someone to hold
Do you want me?
Oh I try to be easy
I try to put one foot in back of the other
And I feel
You don't even know i'm alive
I open my mouth cause I'm waiting for your love to fall from the sky
And I feel
You think that I'm out of my mind
And maybe your scared to be right
But you'll never know till you get me alone
You're looking at me strange like you don't know my name (my name)
You're looking at me strange like you don't know my name
You're looking at me strange like it's some kind of fake
You're looking at me strange like you want me to change
And I feel
You don't even know I'm alive
I open my mouth cause I'm waiting for your love to fall from the sky
And I feel
You think that I'm out of my mind
And maybe your scared to be right
But you'll never know till you get me alone
Do you
Do you
Do you want me?
Do you
Do you
Do you want me?
You'll never know till you get me alone
Do you
Do you
Do you want me?

Running Scared
Words and music by roy orbison and joe melson
Just runnin scared each place we go
So afraid that he might show
Yeah, runnin scared, what would I do
If he came back and wanted you
Just runnin scared, feelin low
Runnin scared, you love him so
Just runnin scared, afraid to lose
If he came back which one would you choose
Then all at once he was standing there
So sure of himself, his head in the air
My heart was breaking, which one would it be
You turned around and walked away with me.

My Strongest Weakness
The keeper of the gates of wisdom
Please let me in
cause I just cant go through
Another heartache again
Pretty lies and alibis
How could I be so blind?
Now Im all alone and scared to stay
Slowly going out of my mind
(chorus)
He was my strongest weakness
I surrendered heart and soul
Its gonna be a long, long time
til I regain control
Im still a prisoner
Held captive by his memory
He was my strongest weakness
And Im afraid hell always be
I gave my faithful heart to someone
I couldnt understand
How he held my little world
In the palm of his hand
Now hes gone and life goes on
So if this pain will ever end
Will I be afraid to risk it all
Ever fall in love again?
(repeat chorus)

I Can't Breathe
I'm scared to sleep, I scared to dream
I'm scared to wake up in case I scream
I'm scared to whisper one word.
That's all it needs
I hear it breathe, I hear it sigh
I hear it laughing when something dies
I hear it calling
But I'm too scared to move
I'm so scared
I can't breathe
I'm so scared
I just can't breathe
I'm scared to look, I'm scared to see
I'm scared of mirrors in case it's me.
I'm scared of memories
But now thats all I have
So I can't leave and no-one comes
So no-one noticed that I've come undone.
I'd hide in shadows
But the shadows talk to me.
I'm so scared
I can't breathe
I'm so scared
I just can't breathe

I'm Not Scared
I'm not scared.
Though I'm not prepared.
How do I dare?
I must wade through all this despair.
All the while in disrepair.
I'll have to face it someday.
I'm not scared.
How little well I've fared.
Has anyone ever really cared?
I'm not scared.
Into the battle I must charge.
Though the task seems very large.
Desperation hammers at me like a barge.
I'm not scared.
How could I be?
When the sense of hopelessness tears so hard at me.
I know it's not to be.
With this fate I'm ill at ease.
Dear God help me please.
To this destruction I march on.
One day later the pain will be gone.
I'm not scared of all these things.
For my motivations are pure and clean.

I Cant Move
Watchin the sunshine, peekin over the skyline
Thinkin I gotta get mine, gotta try at least one time
Wanna get near it, close enough to fear it
Close enough to hear it, close enough to say
That I looked it in the eye and then I turned away
(chorus)
And Im not scared, but I cant move
Im not scared, but I cant move
Hangin out on the weeknight, lookin off the street light
Gettin into some fist fight, tryin to cling to my birth right
I wanna get near her, close enough to smell her
Close enough to tell her all the things that I wanna say
That I looked her in the eye and made her run away
(chorus)
And I dont care (dont care), but I cant move
I dont care (dont care), but I cant move
Layin up in the sofa, lookin out of my window
Pullin back on some endo, watchin breeze as the wind blow
Wanna get near it, close enough to hear it
Close enough to fear it, close enough to say
That I looked it in the eye and then it turned away
(chorus)
And Im not scared (not scared), but I cant move
Im not scared (not scared), but I cant move

Hymn
Oh refuge of my hardened heart
Oh fast pursuing lover come
As angels dance 'round Your throne
My life by captured fare You own
Not silhouette of trodden faith
Nor death shall not my steps be guide
I'll pirouette upon mine grave
For in Your path I'll run and hide
[Chorus:]
Oh gaze of love so melt my pride
That I may in Your house but kneel
And in my brokenness to cry
Spring worship unto Thee
When beauty breaks the spell of pain
The bludgeoned heart shall burst in vain
But not when love be pointed king
And truth shall Thee forever reign
[Chorus]
Sweet Jesus carry me away
From cold of night

Aint That Unusual
Could you talk to me
Honestly?
cause I never heard a word you said now
And I aint just being mean
cause all we are is what were told
And most of thats been lies
Its like a made for tv movie
And I just blew my line
Someday you never made it
And maybe it never will
Hey, you never made it
And aint that unusual?
Now I feel unknown
And its safe that way
Are you too bored to care or too dumb to be scared now?
Whats that supposed to mean?
Im burned out on some empty reasons
Another waste of time
Theres somethin that I wish Id said
But I dont think itd rhyme
Chorus
See Id love to be you
Then at least then Id see you
Sorry I put them words in your mouth
But you wouldnt talk to me
Hey!
Everything I want I havent got
Im sick of everything I know Im not
Put my heavy coat on for a while
Its freezing in the corner of my mind

Talk To Me

Im not afraid in the dark
To say what I fell
And Im just too scared to tell ya
What I know is real
(chorus)
But I cant wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go down
Wait any longer for the lights to go
Down cant you see
Baby when you talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
Talk to me
Baby when you talk to me
I wanna hold you so close
Each beat of the day
I call you up on the phone
Nothing to say
(chorus)
Since we first you were the only one
Sometimes I forget - Im still the lonely one
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Im in a trap - sealed by your lips -
Scared to go anywhere
Thinking about - those things I miss -
Whenever youre not there

Listen To Me
You came down as if from heaven
Laid a soft hand on me
I kept on walking and thinking
Where my lifes gone I should weep
Well I dont know where Ive been going
Ive never known the reason why
So listen to me
Im scared to cry
The angel sat down at my table
I told her all my doubts and pain
She said there always is a time for love
That it will come to me again
But I dont know where Ive been going
Ive never known the reason why
So listen to me
Im scared to cry
Well I dont know where Ive been going
Ive never known the reason why
So listen to me
Im scared to cry
Yeh listen to me
Im scared to cry
Without me you would be nowhere
All alone Ive cared
You owe it all to me

Get your boots on boy an get on out
