Lyrics for I’m Afraid
Happiness came in a box Never meant that much before Till I met someone who knew How to balance who I am As we know, I'm insecure He might've missed out on my birth I replicate the things I learnt I don't blame him though I'm a wife, I'm a kid I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch I'm too drunk, I can't sleep I can't feel, I'm afraid I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'm nothing without him What if I ruin it? Take the ring, take the ring I'm a wife, I'm a kid I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch I'm too drunk, I can't sleep I can't feel anything I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'm nothing without him What if I ruin it? Take the ring, take the ring It's complicated how I feel Know I'm not supposed to say But I have to get it out So my insides don't turn black All this pain makes me believe I'm a better artist now An excuse I tell myself To act selfishly I'm a wife, I'm a kid I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch I'm too drunk, I can't sleep I can't feel, I'm afraid I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'm nothing without him What if I ruin it? Take the ring, take the ring I'm a wife, I'm a kid I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch I'm too drunk, I can't sleep I can't feel anything I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'm nothing without him What if I ruin it? Take the ring, take the ring
