Not Afraid
Lacuna Coil Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Watch your back because I am coming closer.
Shivers down your spine, you were not expecting me.
How does it feel to be faced in your territory?
Are you afraid to see me?

I'm not afraid,
To take my time, to live my life,
The way I want to.
I'm not afraid,
To take you down and live my life,
As I want to.
I'm not afraid.

Closer but apart, no one else can hear us.
Get out of the car, did you want to live without me?
How does it feel to be faced in your territory?
Are you surprised to see me?

I'm not afraid,
To take my time, to live my life,
The way I want to.
I'm not afraid,
To take you down and live my life,
As I want to.
I'm not afraid.

I'm not afraid,
To take my time, to live my life,
The way I want to.
I'm not afraid,
To take you down and live my life,
As I want to.

I'm not afraid,
To take my time, to live my life,
The way I want to.
I'm not afraid,
To take you down and live my life,




As I want to.
I'm not afraid.
