Mama said,
"Don't be scared of the dark",
But he had shivers running down his spine,
10 years on,
Shivers gone, but he hides,
He won't ever let you see inside,
He goes out to the bar every Friday night,
All he wants is to fight,
He's only human,
And under it all so lost,
Scared to be human,
To open your soul,
Scared to be human,
Easy to be tough and cold,
Scared to be human,
Afraid to get hurt,
Scared to be human,
Your heart's stuck behind the walls,
Older now,
Not a hair on his skull,
All his friends have got the same tattoos,
2am,
Got his knife in the dark,
Way too much to prove and he can't lose,
They go out to the bars every Friday night,
All they want is to fight,
They're only human,
And under it all so lost,
Scared to be human,
To open your soul,
Scared to be human,
Easy to be tough and cold,
Scared to be human,
Afraid to get hurt,
Scared to be human,
Your heart's stuck behind the walls
