Lyrics Big Bird (Live) - AJJ

I'm afraid of the way that I live my life
I'm afraid of the way I don't
I'm afraid of the things that I wanna do, but I won't
I'm afraid of God
I'm afraid to believe
I'm afraid of all the loved ones that I've made leave
I'm afraid that my dog doesn't love me, anymore
I'm afraid of social laziness that let Kitty Genovese die, and
I'm afraid of the mob mentality that makes otherwise normal people go blind
I'm afraid of the way that the world works, and
I'm afraid of the words in my notebooks
I'm afraid that you all know that I am a pervert
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'm afraid of my grandfather's cancer, and
I'm afraid of my mom's dying arm
I'm afraid that I've somehow caused my family harm
I'm afraid that ones I love won't have enough
I'm afraid that ones I love won't have enough
It's harder to be yourself, than it is to be anybody else
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
So I bought a knife
I am a knife
