LANA DEL REY
"Afraid"

I'm America's sweetheart,
Try'na get away.
You make it hard to leave,
But it's easier for me to stay.
I am so afraid.

And I've had it up to here,
With the fighting, baby,
We're not, fooling anyone,
These days, I don't wanna stray.
But, boy, I'm so afraid.

But it's not love,
That keeps me here,
And it's not what,
You want to hear.

So I'm going back to,
Santa Monica, New York to L.A.,
Never coming back,
Boy, no matter what you do,
I'll say, "'cause I'm so afraid."

And I've had it up to here,
With the panic and the fear.
There's nothing in your heart,
Thought that I could make you,
Change, I'm so afraid.

But it's not love,
That keeps me here.

We were just teenagers,
When we fell in love.
Driving in your fast car,
Looking at the stars above.

But it was not enough.

You should never come between a,
Woman and her dream and,
A man who never knew his place.
There's no easy way, to come back,
From where you came.

But it's not love,
That keeps me here,
And it's not what,
You want to hear.

So, baby, now I'm going back to,
Santa Monica, New York to L.A.,
Never coming back,
Boy, no matter what you do,
I'll say, "'cause I'm so afraid."

Oh, I've had it up to here,
With the panic and the fear.
There's nothing in your heart,
Boy, I thought that I could make,
You change, I'm so afraid.

And it's not love,
It's just the fear,
You've been down,
For all these years,
But I'm leaving now.

I'm going, back to Santa Monica,
New York to L.A., never coming back,
Boy, no matter what you do,
Or say, I am done being afraid.

Oh, I've had it up to here,
With the panic and the fear.
There's nothing in your heart,
I thought that I could make you,
Change, but I'm so afraid.

Oh it's not love,
That keeps me here,
It's not love,
That keeps me here,

I'm done being afraid.
I am done being afraid.

Oh, oh, oh.
