Never Be Afraid Again
Christian Walz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To your underworld, to your underworld,
I will follow the, rising bubbles to the sky
Like a melody, like a melody...
I will never be alone, this could be my other home
I will never be afraid again, hold your breath and count to ten
I will never be afraid, close your eyes and count to ten
Stay for silence, stay for when I will never be afraid again
It's a sudden change, from the surface to below
It's a different town, when you've gone underground
No use to SOS, when you know you gonna drown
Try to stay alive, surrender to survive...
I will never be alone, this could be my other home
I will never be afraid again, hold your breath and count to ten
Stay for silence, stay for when I will never be afraid again
I will never be afraid, close your eyes and count to ten
Stay for silence, stay for when I will never be afraid again
Find a light above the sea (oh no), cross your heart and follow me
(Like a melody tonight)
Imagine how it all could end, imagine how it all could be..
(Like a melody tonight)
I will never be afraid again, hold your breath and count to ten
Stay for silence, stay for when I will never be afraid again
I will never be afraid, close your eyes and count to ten
Stay for silence, stay for when I will never be afraid again
The lyrics of Christian Walz's song "Never Be Afraid Again" talks about a journey to a new place, specifically to an underworld or a different town when going underground. The change is described to be sudden and can be scary as one is surrendering to survive. However, the singer is willing to follow and allow themselves to be taken down to this new place. In this place, the singer discovers rising bubbles and melodies that lead to the sky. The singer finds comfort and a sense of belonging in this other world and declares that they will never be alone again.
The chorus of the song is about not being afraid anymore. The lyrics tell us to "hold your breath and count to ten" and "close your eyes and count to ten" to find silence and escape from fear. The lyrics seem to suggest that in this new place, the singer has found a way to overcome their fears and feels empowered. The bridge of the song encourages one to follow the lights above the sea, cross their heart and imagine a better future.

This song found me at the lowest, darkest point in my life. This song helped me survive my worst suicidal thoughts. I wish more people could find it and the courage to hold on like I did. Life gets better, I swear.
