too afraid

Wait a second
I think that you're being followed
Someone's looking for trouble
Don't be scared
Keep walking on
And on
And on

Where is everyone?
Why are you alone?
Is this really happening right now?
Are you trapped inside a ghost town?
Is it all in your mind?
Are you really fine?
Maybe take your time
And breathe
Just breathe
Breathe in
Breathe out

Oh please
Don't look over your shoulder
Quickly getting closer
Pick up the pace
Can't see its face
Begin to run
Keep on running
Run, run
I think it's gone
You see someone
You cry for help
No response
Instead they walk
Walking on
You try to catch up
They seem startled

Begin to run
Like they're running away from you
Maybe you're the problem
Perhaps it's true
All this time
That's the issue
Too afraid to ask for help
It frightens you
Seems like you're struggling
With something
But you just
Keep on bottling it up
Until you just give up
