I should be afraid of trusting others.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid of betrayal.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid of conflicts, dramas, and rumors.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid of what people think of me.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid of darkness.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid of being isolated.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid of being alone.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid of being abandoned.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid of getting hurt.
But I’m not.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid.
I should be afraid.
I shouldn’t be afraid.
I shouldn’t be afraid.
I shouldn’t be afraid.
Should I be afraid?
Should I be afraid?
Should I be afraid?
I shouldn’t be afraid?
I shouldn’t be afraid?
I shouldn’t be afraid?
But I am in fact afraid-
Because my heart
Is afraid and every
Time my heart
Whimpers and cries
My heart wails and lies
Even though it’s putting
A brave front it’s in fact
A scaredy cat in real life

Well written, even if it is a little repetitive- but it gets the point across- and slow. It makes you think about what you hide from others and what you may even hide from yourself.

I get why its repeatitive, its because you are trying to convince yourself isn't it? That if you say it a no. of times, you may actually start believing it. That is how I interpreted it. Am I right??
