Scared
Billie The Vision & The Dancers & Golden Kanine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
or what's happened to my self esteem
Did you take it?
Did you act in vain?
Did you see what you did to me?
If you think all the mean things you say
would make me change my mind and stay
you know that you are wrong
I would like to be your friend
but I'm scared like I can't tell you
I know that I need help
and I know that you need help too
and if I was untrue to you I wish I could go back
I'm a puppet in your hands and I just close my eyes and swollow
I'm grateful for the time we spent
and the love that I felt from you
and the love that I still feel for you
just keeps on getting stronger
If I did something completely wrong
I am sorry but I can't regret it
I believed in every word I said
and I want so hard to believe
I would like to be your friend
but I'm scared like i can't tell you
I know that I need help
and I know that you need help too
and if I was untrue to you I wish I could go back
I'm a puppet in your hands and I just close my eyes and swallow
And give me a reason why you act like this
I will retreat and I will surrender
but Pablo was so afraid of you
when he walked these empty streets tonight
I thought that you would hit and run
and I thought that you would kill me
and did you do something to my car?
will I survive my way back home?
I would like to be your friend
would you like to be mine?
I know that I need help
and I know that you need help too
and if I was untrue to you I wish I could go back
I'm a puppet in your hands and I just close my eyes and swallow
