Lyrics for Life Less Frightening

Suffering from something we're not sure of In a world there is no cure for These lives we live test negative for happiness Flat line, no pulse but eyes open Single file like soldiers on a mission If there's no war outside our heads, why are we losing? I don't ask for much Truth be told I'd settle for a life less frightening A life less frightening I don't ask for much Truth be told I'd settle for a life less frightening A life less frightening Hang me out to dry, I'm soaking With the sense of knowing What's gone wrong but doing nothing, I still run Time again I have found myself stuttering Foundations pulled out from under me This breath is wasted on them all, will someone answer me? I don't ask for much Truth be told I'd settle for a life less frightening A life less frightening I don't ask for much Truth be told I'd settle for a life less frightening A life less frightening Is there a god tonight Up in the sky Or is it empty just like me? (Just like me?) A place where we can hide Out from the night Where you are all I need? (Where you are all I need) So blow a kiss goodbye And close your eyes Tell me what you see (Tell me what you see) A lifetime spent inside This dream of mine Where you are all I see I don't ask for much Truth be told I'd settle for a life less frightening A life less frightening I don't ask for much Truth be told I'd settle for a life less frightening A life less frightening
