Jason - Be Afraid Lyrics

We've been testing you, and you failed
To see how long that you could sit with the truth but you bailed
I don't think you even recognize the loss of control
I don't think you even see it in yourself
See every one of us is counting dice that we didn't roll
And the loser is the last to ask for help

Be afraid, be very afraid
But do it anyway, do it anyway

The stage belongs to you, and you feel like a star
And you can bark and snap like a dog
At the man who just tuned your guitar
And I don't think you even recognize the kid in the wings
And I don't think you even see her in yourself
She looks to you for what to do with all her delicate dreams
But you're too terrified to be of any help

Be afraid, be very afraid
Do it anyway, do it anyway
Be afraid, be very afraid
Do it anyway, do it anyway

And we don't take requests
We won't shut up and sing
Tell the truth enough
You find it rhymes with everything

We've been testing you and you failed
To see how long that you could hold it in before you screamed
But you only exhaled
I don't think you even recognize the sound of your voice
When its blasting through the speakers in the sky
And if your words add up to nothing
Then you're making a choice to sing a cover
When we need a battle cry

Be afraid, be very afraid
Do it anyway, do it anyway
Be afraid, be very afraid
Do it anyway, do it anyway
Be afraid, be very afraid
Do it anyway, do it anyway
Be afraid, be very afraid
Do it anyway, do it anyway
