Are We Afraid



Wasn't it hard

And did we want penance

Summer's so long

Colder men when their ice prayer never came



Didn't we fight it

And weren't we hard

Holding back a friend of mine

All the way coming home



Aren't we the ones who never got tired?



Wasn't it magic

The flames rolled and I said okay

Weren't we just asking

For something to come our way



Are we another, were we afraid?

Is there a hope that we'll wait to walk a time?

He's a long road...



And I feel like a newborn again

But the night holds on alone

I'm coming home



Don't we mind waiting

And are we ashamed

Coming here in the black dark night

And I don't feel so strange



Are we the lady?

Were we afraid?

Are we the summer...
