I’m afraid of the

trouble that is in my face

I wont stop being afraid

until I get it out of the way

I start by

putting on

a strong and stony face

and battling

with all of my heart

If that doesn’t solve things

I will try to be more smart

**

Be optimistic 

Be bright

Get by

Work to release the fear

Hold tight

Stay alive 

Try to increase good cheer

Find a good time and place

Get into

the headspace

I will never fall apart

Take it to the heart

**

I’m afraid of trouble that lurks

Beyond my thoughts

I won’t stop being afraid

until I tie up all the knots

I start by

Facing up to

all of the tough spots

and caring more

with all of my heart

If that doesn’t solve things

I will always be on guard

**

Be logical

Be bright

Get by

Work to release the fear

Hold tight

Stay alive 

Try to increase good cheer

Find a good time and place

Get into

the headspace

We will never fall apart

Take it to the heart

**

I’m afraid of the trouble

That’s why it has a place

If I stop being afraid

It might just get

right out of the way
