I used to be fearless

life was nothing but a promise

and I meant to keep it

I didn't know about honest

and I still don't believe it

but I found out

what it was all about

and now I'm shaking

alone and tough

I've seen enough

I was mistaken

          I used to be fearless

          I used to be the one who had a dream

          I tried to be near this

          now nothing is the way it seems

          now all I see

          are sides of me

          that I can't comprehend

          I've been burned

          so I have to learn

          over and over and over again

          I used to be fearless

          I used to be fearless

I thought life would have some meaning

turns out I was wrong

I didn't know which way I was leaning

I was confused all along

and now I'm here

hiding my tears

maybe you can help me through

as I grow older

the world becomes colder

give me an idea of what to do

          I used to be fearless

          I used to be the one who had a dream

          I tried to be near this

          now nothing is the way it seems

          now all I see

          are sides of me

          that I can't comprehend

          I've been burned

          so I have to learn

          over and over and over again

          I used to be fearless

          I used to be fearless
