Sam Huntington - Fears lyrics

When you were little you were terrified Of the basement in the house You were scared of all the ghosts and monsters Waiting to get out You got big but you're still afraid Though it's mostly just 'cause Of the asbestos On the rusty pipes And it feels like [Chorus] Time goes by And you don't drop your fears You just switch the reasons And time goes by And you don't drop your fears You just switch the reasons And shut the door One day we'll both be dead Like the cat that our parents had I wonder if he got eaten By a coyote It probably doesn't matter We'll probably both be lonely And missing him [Chorus] And I'm still afraid of the basement So I put my exercise bike down there Because I run faster when I'm scared And It's working, I'm getting slim But the monsters all want to be my friends And I don't want to be friends with them Because then I'd have to start going to a gym Then I'd have to start going to a gym Then I'd have to start paying for a gym
