Afraid to be alone
So you become friends with everyoneAfraid of being yourself
So you distance yourself from everyoneAfraid to not be liked
So you portray what others like mostAfraid to show your emotions
So you front to everyoneAfraid of your reflection
So you eat little and turn all the mirrors aroundAfraid of commitment
So you pull away when you get closeAfraid of rejection
So you take back and hide your feelingsAfraid of death
So you hurt yourself insteadAfraid of silence
So you stay chaotic and loudAfraid of putting yourself out there
So you stay hidden in the crowdAfraid of your own life
So you create one in your booksAfraid of change
So you bottle up your emotions and ignore what your heart saysAfraid of the truth
So you run from itAfraid of your blood
So you make family out of othersAfraid of reality
So you dream, write, draw, and create a fantastical world that you can escape to whenever you wantAfraid of the voices
So you block them out with books and writingAfraid to lose those you hold dear
So you push them away so "it hurts less"Afraid of our insecurities
So we fire shots at each other'sGiven to you by, me, DemonfromHeaven04 and Luna_Deerling
