When I'm Afraid

I woke up today
With my head banging
A drum I couldn't seem to keep in time
I thought I'd escaped
The dread I feel
When nothing that I've made feels like it's mine

Sometimes I'm amazed
At just how ridiculous I look
When I'm afraid
Take it in, here I am
It's no secret how I ended up this way

Terrible form
When details wore
What's left of all the confidence I had
I bounce around
The cap and gown
Were warnings of impending ego death

Sometimes I'm amazed
At just how ridiculous I look
When I'm afraid
Take it in, here I am
It's no secret how I ended up this way

Will I ever see things the way you do
If the demons in my head will never leave?
Why can't I just be imperfect now?
Believe that pushing forward won't destroy
The reasons I have left to be me?

Sometimes I'm amazed
At just how ridiculous I look
When I'm afraid
Take it in, here I am
It's no secret how I ended up this way
It's no secret how I ended up this way
It's no secret how I ended up this way
It's no secret how I ended up this way
It's no secret how I ended up this way
