but you're afraid to look down.
C E7 Am F
And people are people, we all make mistakes,
G
but I'm afraid that the disasters will eventually add up and one day

I have no hole to crawl back to.

C E7 Am F G
There are answers to these questions inside our actions but we're too scared to leave our homes.
C E7 Am F G
I'm afraid of where I come from, but I'm even more afraid of where I go.
