I once knew a girl in my life 
She locked herself in late at night 
Scared of what people may say 
Scared of what people may do 
Some say that she was afraid 
I say the girl is like me and you 

She was in need of a friend 
Someone to just lend a hand 
I said, "You can confide in me 
I'll help you be all that you can be 
Trust me I'll pull you through" 
It didn't take long to find I was scared too 

We all have a fear deep inside 
It causes us all to go hide 
Scared of what people may do 
Scared of what people may say 
Pretending that things are okay 
Crying inside when we don't get our way
