Versuri
Verse 1
I walk into the shadows, trying not to fear
Every little whisper is too loud in my ear
They think I'm brave, they think I'm bold
But if they knew the truth, they'd see I'm not that cold
Pre-Chorus
My hands are shaking, but I smile
I fake my courage for a while
Chorus
I will clear ghost stories with quick wit
Laughing like I'm over it
But deep inside I must admit
I'm scared of every little bit
I'm a secret coward, it's true
I just want to make it through
When the night is finally gone
I just want to go back home
Verse 2
Every creaking door, every falling sound
Feels like something's creeping all around
I make a joke, pretend I'm fine
Praying that the ghosts ignore this heart of mine
Pre-Chorus
I play the hero in the night
But I'm the first to flee in fright
Chorus
I will clear ghost stories with quick wit
Laughing like I'm over it
But deep inside I must admit
I'm scared of every little bit
I'm a secret coward, it's true
I just want to make it through
When the night is finally gone
I just want to go back home
Bridge
If courage means you’re terrified
And still you try to stand your ground
Then maybe I’m not weak inside
Even if my knees give out
Final Chorus
I will clear ghost stories with quick wit
Even if I'm faking it
I'm a secret coward, it's true
But I'm still pushing through
When the dark has come and gone
And I finally see the dawn
I'll drop the act and say it plain:
I just want to go home again.
