I'm Not Scared Lyrics

You say I look too tired today

Why did I stay up so late?

Well soon after you left me last

Night I felt a small pain in my chest

So I sat at my desk

And I drafted my epitaph

Wrote it out a million times to make sure it was perfect

Just being prepared.

But don't worry 'bout me

No don't worry 'bout me

I'm not scared

I'm 19 and it's 2022

I don't know God nor you

And this fact backs my every thought

Sometimes I resent your optimism

My heart is a prison

Your heart is a juggernaut.

I'm not reckless with love, God knows Twitter and Taylor

Taught me to take care.

But there's a truth I should meet

So I lie through my teeth

"I'm not scared."

I know I can't be everything for you

We both know that's not true

There are things that I'll never have

But you know if you need to feel free

You could hike the AT

And I'd still be there when you're back

Both of our lives are precious, they should not be wasted

If you're not prepared

But if you want one with me

You can have one with me

I'm not scared
