Charli XCX - I'm Afraid Lyrics

Charli XCX Lyrics

"I'm Afraid"

Happiness came in a box
Never meant that much before
Till I met someone who knew
How to balance who I am
As we know, I'm insecure
He might've missed out on my birth
I replicate the things I learnt
I don't blame him though

I'm a wife, I'm a kid
I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch
I'm too drunk, I can't sleep
I can't feel, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm nothing without him
What if I ruin it?
Take the ring, take the ring
I'm a wife, I'm a kid
I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch
I'm too drunk, I can't sleep
I can't feel anything
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm nothing without him
What if I ruin it?
Take the ring, take the ring

It's complicated how I feel
Know I'm not supposed to say
But I have to get it out
So my insides don't turn black
All this pain makes me believe
I'm a better artist now
An excuse I tell myself
To act selfishly

I'm a wife, I'm a kid
I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch
I'm too drunk, I can't sleep
I can't feel, I'm afraid
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm nothing without him
What if I ruin it?
Take the ring, take the ring
I'm a wife, I'm a kid
I'm destroyed, I'm a bitch
I'm too drunk, I can't sleep
I can't feel anything
I'm afraid, I'm afraid
I'm nothing without him
What if I ruin it?
Take the ring, take the ring
