about

Having trouble maintaining a relationship with someone because of their political views? Yeah, me too.

lyrics

LYRICS:

I’m a little afraid of you (of you).
More for the things you say than what you do (what you do).
You were my friend.
You could be one again.
I don’t want this to end.

I’m a little afraid of you (of you).
And all the things you’ve come to believe to be true.
You slowly changed.
We lost our way.
I felt my heart break.

I can’t see a way out of this crazy mess
Whether to run or stay, which is best (which is best).
We fight to be heard.
We just want the last word.
It’s all so absurd.

I need you to know
I love you so

I’m a little afraid of us (of us).
How do we survive without trust—we must!
We fight for scraps, and for bones.
We echo lies we’ve been told.
We’re too afraid to be bold -
While they trade our love for gold.
