I never thought you would lose yourself The hardest part was falling down again I'm a fool to watch you walk away Are you bothered by the choice you made?
When we fall to the ground Slowly we're safe and sound
It's so simple to be afraid It's so simple when you know who you are It's so simple to be afraid It's so simple when you know who you are
I caught you lying to yourself Now everything is spinning 'round and around Well, I'm a fool to watch but never say Are you bothered by the choice you made?
When we fall to the ground Slowly we're safe and sound
It's so simple to be afraid It's so simple when you know who you are It's so simple to be afraid It's so simple when you know who you are
But maybe we were wrong When will you know? That you can feel belonged I think you fell in deeper than you imagined
It's so simple to be afraid It's so simple when you know who you are It's so simple to be afraid It's so simple when you know who you are
