I stand beside you

I face the future

I'll admit to you

I am afraid

I am afraid

As I stand beside you

I have denied you

I am afraid

I am not drunk now

I am not pilled down

My windows wound down

I am not brainwashed

I am not running

I am not hiding

My bet's still riding

I am afraid

I swing you high o

I swing you low a

I see your eye o

I see you grow a

I hear you crying

Your brother's dying

Be no more lying

I am afraid

I am afraid

As I stand beside you

I have denied you

I am afraid

I stand beside you

I face the future

I'll admit to you

I am afraid

By my religion

I stand here naked

I cannot fake it

With God as witness

My little children

Who wait for feeding'

I watch you bleeding'

I am afraid

I am afraid

As I stand beside you

I have denied you

I am afraid

I stand beside you

I face the future

I'll admit to you

I am afraid
