I'm afraid of growing old
Of the time when my generation
Is no longer relevant
Of the time when my body
And mind start deteriorating
When I'm past the prime
Of my youth
And everything I've done
Will be forgotten

I'm afraid of never finding my purpose
To live the remainder of my years
Without knowing what it is
I'm living and breathing for
I'm afraid to go to the same
Dead end job, just to live
In the same old routine
I want my life to have meaning
But how am I supposed to find that?

I'm afraid of falling in love
Because just as easy as it is
To fall into love with someone
It's just as easy to fall out of love
I'm afraid to face the moment
Where someone's smile
Doesn't brighten up my world
Like it did before

I'm afraid to continue living
I'm afraid of the hard times
I'm destined to face
I'm afraid of heart ache
And death and love and life
I'm afraid, so afraid
That I'll never find my answers
But I guess that means I'm brave
Because I'm facing my fears head on
