about

Originally released December 13 of 1997.

lyrics

Why are you so scared of focused light
You run away from it like wrong from right
Why do you so like the darkened night
You run away so far you almost fight

I suppose that I should read your palms of fear
I suppose your choice respected would bring cheer
To an otherwise dark and wary tear
So run away

Why are you so frightened by my eyes
Don't run away from this, you need some good
Why don't you attack yourself and rise
Not run away so long from what you should

I suppose that I should read your palms of fear
I suppose your choice respected would bring cheer
To an otherwise dark and wary tear
So run away
