lyrics

Don’t be afraid of what you want
Still staring at the skyline from the riverfront
Buildings, like mirrors, reflect back on us
Don’t be afraid of what you want

Don’t be afraid to start a fight
You’ll never see them swinging at you from behind
Here, let me see that, come into the light
Don’t be afraid to start a fight

If you cross your fingers the ghosts will pass right through
From across the river I’ll watch over you

Don’t be afraid of what you are
the beauty’s in the contrast of your clashing parts
and stars shine the brightest when everything goes dark
don’t be afraid of what you are

If you cross your fingers the ghosts will pass right through
From across the river I will wait for you

So call it out
Find your sound
The world is waiting
And I’ll be here
In the glare
The sunset’s fading out

If you try to hide it
It only weighs you down
Let the light surround it
Exposing what you found
