Boy Afraid

Mother, leave me with my thoughts

I want to be alone

In blackness I am home

I know the truth

There's a man in my closet

He whispers a sad song

His motives are dead wrong

He's just like you

Pitiful, pitiful, how you're stuck in your way

Pitiful, pitiful, fear falls over your face

Little boy afraid

Slip away

I don't see you in my future

In my

Boy afraid

It's too late

I don't see you in my future

In my

Homicidal, unstable

Blink twice if you're able

To classify fable

From poignant truth

All the satellites watching

Disposing of bodies

Of water you wash me

I'm dripping clues

Pitiful, pitiful, how you're stuck in your way, way

Little boy afraid

Slip away

I don't see you in my future

In my

Boy afraid

It's too late

I don't see you in my future

In my

Walk the plank and show me the part

I'm rooting for the underground

Do you come to explain how you've betrayed

Why you've betrayed

Little boy afraid

Slip away

I don't see you in my future

Boy afraid

It's too late

I don't see you in my future

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh
