lyrics

It started with fire, the fear that follows me / when you took me as a child to see the charred house down the street I dreamt walls of flame slowly cornered me / as they touched me, I woke up / I was fearless until you made me afraid / I started locking my favorite toys in the fireproof safe.

I was pretty young when you told me the truth / you said, “There are men who want to hurt girls like you” / then I dreamt two tall men came into my room, gagged me, and dragged me away in a van / I was fearless until you made me afraid / I started packing a Smith & Wesson and pepper spray.

I loved you more than I loved my own life / when I realized you could easily die I dreamt I sat on the edge of a deep and narrow pit / looking down into darkness with no end / I was fearless until you made me afraid / I’ve locked everything of value away / I was fearless until you made me afraid / now just look at all the trouble you’ve made.
