[Verse 1]

I bet you didn't know

That I cursed you with

The words I wrote

I was only seeking closure

In my naïveté

I gave you up

And I became

A ghost, a plague, a tragedy

[Pre-Chorus]

Are you afraid, you afraid of me?

You're afraid of the things I've seen

You're afraid that I'll tell your secrets

You're afraid that I'll say you cheated

[Chorus]

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid

(You're afraid, you're afraid)

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid

(You're afraid)

[Verse 2]

Caught in your ignorance

To think I wouldn't see your hands

Like serpents in the summer grass

Red and black

You held me from the truth

You loved me first

And left me used

You bit my hand and bruised my shoulder

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause you're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid of the things I've seen

You're afraid that I'll tell your secrets

You're afraid that I'll say you cheated

[Chorus]

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid

(You're afraid, you're afraid)

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid

(You're afraid)

[Bridge]

And I feel sorry for you

How you fed me lies

You watched me swallow every kiss

Such a pitiful existence

Choking on the pieces

Of the truth that you were keeping

[Pre-Chorus]

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid of the things I've seen

You're afraid that I'll tell your secrets

You're afraid that I'll say you cheated

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid of the things I've seen

You're afraid that I'll tell your secrets

You're afraid that I'll say you cheated

[Chorus]

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid

(You're afraid, you're afraid)

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid of me

You're afraid, you're afraid

You're afraid, you're afraid

(You're afraid)
