Boy Afraid - Acoustic
Mother leave me with my thoughts
I want to be alone
In blackness, I am home
I know the truth
There's a man in my closet
He whispers a sad song
His motives are dead wrong
He's just like you
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pitiful, pitiful, how you're stuck in your way, yeah
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pitiful, pitiful, fear falls over your face
Little boy afraid, slip away
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Boy afraid, it's too late
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Homicidal, unstable
Blink twice if you're able
To classify fable from poignant truth
All the satellites watching
Disposing of bodies
Of water you wash me
I'm dripping clues
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pitiful, pitiful, how you're stuck in your way, way?
Little boy afraid, slip away
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Boy afraid, it's too late
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Walk the plank and show me the part
I'm rooting for the underground
Do you come to explain how you've betrayed?
Why you've betrayed?
Little boy afraid, slip away
I don't see you in my future, in my, my-
Boy afraid, it's too late
I don't see you in my future, in my, my-
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I want to be alone
In blackness, I am home
I know the truth
There's a man in my closet
He whispers a sad song
His motives are dead wrong
He's just like you
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pitiful, pitiful, how you're stuck in your way, yeah
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pitiful, pitiful, fear falls over your face
Little boy afraid, slip away
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Boy afraid, it's too late
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Homicidal, unstable
Blink twice if you're able
To classify fable from poignant truth
All the satellites watching
Disposing of bodies
Of water you wash me
I'm dripping clues
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pitiful, pitiful, how you're stuck in your way, way?
Little boy afraid, slip away
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Boy afraid, it's too late
I don't see you in my future, in my-
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Walk the plank and show me the part
I'm rooting for the underground
Do you come to explain how you've betrayed?
Why you've betrayed?
Little boy afraid, slip away

Boy afraid, it's too late
I don't see you in my future, in my, my-
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
