Don't Be Scared, I Love You - Bill Ryder-Jones

Those scars

All those senseless scars

My worst parts were when you’re gone

And the endless screaming dark

Comes in from the suburbs

And makes everything worse

Oh, you know how the truth works

And for whatever it’s worth

Don’t be scared, don’t be scared

I love you, I love you

Does it work?

Does it start the things that hurt?

How much and how often?

Do those ocean bedroom floors

Even reach the walls anymore?

Can it really be worth it?

All the stinging and wincing

You said something perfect

With six words and one kiss

Don’t be scared, don’t be scared

I love you, I love you

Don’t be scared, don’t be scared

I love you, I love you
