Are You Afraid
Nite Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I stay awake again tonight
Restless on my bed
My thoughts became a maze inside my head
They led me to a little child
I think I knew before
This child is gone he is not here anymore
He stayed back when the adventure started
When all were new and lights were bright
When all the days were longer
And nights, toys, dreams, hopes
Love, games all were alive
Keep your faith the show's not over
Light the flame and wish upon a star
Take your chance and promise me tonight
You'll never forget who you are
It's morning and I'm still awake
I'm thinking of her smile
I'm thinking of my friends I left behind
Of the long trips with our bikes on weekends
Setting up to explore the world
Talking all night long about girls, sports, bands, gangs
Drinks, goals, stories with ghosts
Keep the faith the show's not over
Light the flame and wish upon a star
Take your chance and promise me tonight
You'll never forget who you are
Keep the faith the show's not over
Light the flame and wish upon a star
Take your chance and promise me tonight
You'll never forget who you are
Keep the faith the show's not over
Light the flame and wish upon a star
Take your chance and promise me tonight
You'll never forget who you are
Keep the faith the show's not over
Light the flame and wish upon a star
Take your chance and promise me tonight
You'll never forget who you are
Keep the faith the show's not over
Light the flame and wish upon a star
Take your chance and promise me tonight
You'll never forget who you are
Keep the faith the show's not over
Light the flame and wish upon a star




Take your chance and promise me tonight
You'll never forget who you are

However, the adventure started and life moved on, and the singer was left with memories of the long trips, talks about girls, sports, and stories with ghosts, and the promise of exploration.


In the present, as the singer reflects on the past, he also worries about the future. He thinks about the friends he left behind and wonders if he's forgotten who he is. But the chorus serves as a reminder to keep the faith, to light the flame and wish upon a star, to take a chance and promise not to forget who you are. The singer urges himself to never forget the moments that define him and to stay true to himself.


Overall, "Are You Afraid" by Nite is a poignant and introspective song about the human experience of grappling with the past, present, and future, and the importance of staying true to oneself.
