afraid to move (rewrite 1)

 

I have to stay in one place/ because I'm afraid to move/ I have to stay indoors/ because there's nowhere else to choose/ I see danger in every alley/ every corner, every home/ I need familiar surroundings/ I'm scared of the unknown/ I've nothing left to prove/ I am afraid to move

I have to remain at home/ because something bad might happen/ I might fall in love/ set my feet and toes to tapping/ and that would be dangerous/ that would be the worst/ it's my experience/ that love is just a curse/  I don't know what I can do/ I am afraid to move

don't make me leave here/ I feel safe when there's nowhere to go/ out there is only fear/ and that's all that I know

I have to stay in one place/ I need to stay away from you/ my history has shown me/ there's nothing I can do/ I know it's an illusion/ there's nothing for me to fear/ but until it's proven to me/ I'm staying right here/ I know inside that it's not true/ but I'm afraid to move
