First verse is a cappella.

I'm afraid of the way I live my life.

I'm afraid of the way I don't

I'm afraid of the things I want to do but I won't.

I'm afraid of God.

I'm afraid to believe and I'm afraid of all the loved ones that I've made leave.

I'm afraid that my dog doesn't love me anymore.

But the big red bird that lives under the city

doesn't give a damn about me and it dies every night.

By burning alive.

I wish I were a little less of a coward

but the big red bird that lives under the city

doesn't give a damn about me and it dies every night.
