When I Was Afraid

Time kept me line Kept me defined It kept me safe when I was afraid Kept me in line Kept me defined It kept me sane when I was afraid Counting the days Pacing the sky Holding every breath I had left in time Gravity, I can't forget You saved my hide a thousand ways Gravity, I can't forgive You let me go I fell away when I was afraid Falling away Out into space Losing all my breath when I was afraid Love, it held me near You held me close I couldn't die when I was afraid You held me close I couldn't die I couldn't live when I was afraid Fear was mine Fear was by my side It kept me well Hell, it kept me alive I counted days as they faded away I only felt sane when I was afraid --- When I Was Afraid - The Thermals
