《Been Afraid》歌词

[00:00:00] Been Afraid - P.O.S

[00:00:08] Yeah million dollar baby girl in the lower middle class

[00:00:13] With a Maglite right beneath her pillow

[00:00:15] And no she's never been a boxer by choice

[00:00:18] She's known to act oak he'll never catch her a willow nuh

[00:00:21] She the calm type you see the small scars

[00:00:23] Creeping down her arm peeking from her rolled sleeves right

[00:00:26] She keeps him weak in the knees but she out stay out of sight

[00:00:29] And when that school bell rings it's goodnight

[00:00:30] Or might as well be he never sees her around

[00:00:33] But he looks for weeks now he's been maybe tomorrow

[00:00:36] But he's shook he sees them bruises and he needs to please her

[00:00:38] Plus he don't wanna go home either gives her a look

[00:00:41] They pass copies down a poem from a schoolbook

[00:00:44] Gives it to her after hesitation whoops his ass

[00:00:46] She took it fast lost like all sensation in her hands

[00:00:49] Then braces herself gracefully sturdy where she stands

[00:00:51] On some humble mumbling pass the words fumbling

[00:00:54] Nothing discouraging just nerves drumming up the courage

[00:00:57] Something bout skylines or bike rides or riverbeds

[00:01:00] Something something that he read

[00:01:02] It caught her right beneath the armor

[00:01:04] Cauterized thought of any blunt forced trauma

[00:01:06] Ain't no way that he could harm her

[00:01:07] When the curse leave a shell like a snake with fresh scales

[00:01:10] Some people seem to call that home but some souls roam

[00:01:13] Keep riding till the cycle is broke

[00:01:15] We ain't got to go through nothing alone

[00:01:17] When the curse leave a shell like a snake with fresh scales

[00:01:20] Some people seem to call that home but some souls roam

[00:01:23] Keep riding till the cycle is broke

[00:01:25] We ain't got to go through nothing alone

[00:01:29] She's in the weather the whole storm

[00:01:30] Hugging on her prince his hands to skin warm

[00:01:33] Quick out the door no note no forlorn

[00:01:35] Cause all they heard was papa don't hit me no more

[00:01:38] But they couldn't seem to keep the swelling down

[00:01:40] How they regretting ever letting out this third child born

[00:01:43] But things are getting better now yeah cozy sweater now

[00:01:46] With her thumbs through the holes in her sleeves worn down

[00:01:49] And the boy similar noise minimal toy criminal

[00:01:51] Joy simple when someone's found it in you

[00:01:53] Somehow it boost the individual that bluish hue is mutual

[00:01:56] They make love gently so aware of each other's bruises

[00:02:00] And sorta scared they can lose this

[00:02:02] Trust bury the blues somewhere it won't bear roots

[00:02:05] But is this boy where the truth is

[00:02:07] She's spooked see fruit never seem to fall far from the useless

[00:02:10] Branch that it's attached to

[00:02:12] And quacks say if he's beat up he's bound to smack you

[00:02:15] She's down to step back now if he ever got loud

[00:02:17] She couldn't be proud of whatever she might do

[00:02:20] But it's the first time she ever felt touch

[00:02:22] That didn't bring her to hush like something was being done to her

[00:02:25] That unscrews her she loosens with the booze

[00:02:27] Her hinge can stay bent addressing her dude's wounds

[00:02:30] Regressing to bedrooms where fools ignored don't

[00:02:33] He's not one of them tools that screws nuts and bolts

[00:02:35] And she know that and she know that

[00:02:38] But she holds back and she hope that he see the way she flinch

[00:02:41] Cause it's knee jerk to brace for attack

[00:02:43] Even if he's only rubbing her back

[00:02:45] I mean and even if it's like the deck has been stacked

[00:02:48] It's not an act he's been loving her back hold your heart up

[00:02:51] Never raise your hand he says that with a grownup's voice

[00:02:54] I'm yours now just like a child

[00:02:56] Please don't be scared now it clicks

[00:02:58] A piece finally fits I love you

[00:03:00] They said that with their lips

[00:03:01] Never raise your hand he says that with a grownup's voice

[00:03:04] I'm yours now just like a child

[00:03:06] Please don't be scared now it clicks

[00:03:08] A piece finally fits I love you

[00:03:12] When the curse leave a shell like a snake with fresh scales

[00:03:14] Some people seem to call that home but some souls roam

[00:03:17] Keep riding till the cycle is broke

[00:03:19] We ain't got to go through nothing alone

[00:03:22] When the curse leave a shell like a snake with fresh scales

[00:03:25] Some people seem to call that home but some souls roam

[00:03:28] Keep riding till the cycle is broke

[00:03:30] We ain't got to go through nothing alone
