Don’t Be Afraid

Meet you and sing uselessly
Save me from my useless story
I'll say what I really am
You say if it's worth a damn
If I can make songs of your bones
You can call my whole world home
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid

You hold right and I'll hold wrong
You hold night and I'll hold dawn
We will walk with balance on
Riches of the mountain's ghost
And if there is an avalanche
It will be our autumn dance
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid

I will leave no work undone
Neither will you or your son
I will sing and play with you
Like the little children do
You don't need to buy anything
You don't need to do nothing
You can steal from the thieves
Like a mother rest with me
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid

You whose hearts are like the moon
Everything is good for you
The whole world is good enough
Your life will be long enough
And if you come into bad luck
Just try and give everything up
And if you hurt and feel bad
Just start kneeling down
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid

You can steal my heart from me
Or you can set your own one free
I think that it's the same thing
And if we die you can blame me
Don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Don't

I beg you not to worry
See how all the flowers are lovely
I will jump into the waterfall
Like they do in the movies now
