Don't Be Afraid

At some point I got too big for the space under your bed
Biting ankles didn't suit me so I moved to your closet

I know the feeling
I know you're scared 'cause somebody scared me too
Funny, I used to be a lot like you
'Til I turned into something else

Please don't be afraid of me
Please don't be afraid of me
Please don't be afraid of me, oh
Please don't be afraid of me
Don't be afraid of me
I'm trying but I know that look

I learned to love what I had
A troubled little thing trying to claw through the cracks, oh
Fact is that people will hurt you, and it has absolutely nothing to do with you

I know the feeling
Healing over and hardening, sharpening
Sometimes I'm unrecognizable
Like I turned into someone else

Please don't be afraid of me
Please don't be afraid of me
Please don't be afraid of me, oh
Please don't be afraid of me
Don't be afraid of me
I'm trying but I know that look

Whoa, living by light through the keyhole
What if I've become the one I've been running from?
Open the door to a tiptoe
What's that? I thought your eyes were closed
But you can see me oh god you can see me oh no

Please don't be afraid of me
Please don't be afraid of me
Please don't be afraid of me, oh
Please don't be afraid of me
Don't be afraid of me
I'm trying but I know that look
