Analysis of affraid to be alone



affraid i might show a sign of fear a sign of a tear holding on for all that ive got but holding it in is tearing me apart so when i let go will you be there as i would be for you  beacuase im so scared that your gonna through my heart away so can you show me i am wrong or will this lasting fear be the end of us is it just just me i know you can see right through me but that makes me think im invisible i just want to know somones there so hold me close tonight  and tell me it will be alright after this day i know in every way that you will be there not just when i need you but now and forever a bond like this can never be severed
