[Verse 1]
Afraid of catching on fire
It pulls the blood down from my head
And still I am just an animal
And all of my parts must be fed

[Refrain 1]
Funny how the lines so easily fill
When you're living with a muddy head, slide down the hill

[Verse 2]
Afraid of undertow
It turns my heart, my head and everything I think I know
The waves carry it away
I’m lost at sea and I have no oar to row

[Refrain 2]
And there's no way to know, baby
The motion of the sea

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
You say you'll catch me when I fall
Maybe, baby, I just need to hit the ground
And if you love me too hard
I may end up making the same old sound
[Refrain 3]
Just don’t be afraid, baby
Afraid of losing me
