Frozen Fear

Gov't Mule · Other Songs - Gov't Mule

Saw you from the corner of my eye

I know loneliness when I see it

Normally I'm not the hero type

There was something between us I could feel it

I could feel it



So I thought I'd throw you a line

I needed one myself so many times

Now here we are somewhere between thankful and where do we go now



(Chorus)

Know you're just running scared

After all you've been through you've got to be aware

Don't be afraid to live your life my dear

Loneliness is just frozen fear



Find some place soft and warm

We could all use a little shelter from the storm

Times like these I'd like to leave it all behind

I know a new sun is gonna rise and shine



(Chorus)

Well you're just running scared

After all you been through you've got to be aware

Don't be afraid to live your life my dear

Loneliness is just frozen fear



I know you think it can't be done

But every moment a new life is begun

People rise above everyday

Things that you and I will never have to face



Hold onto me if you need to

I know the river's deep and wide

Trust in me I'll see ya through

And I'll be there on the other side



(Chorus)

Well you're just running scared

And after all you've been through you've got to be aware

Don't be afraid to live your life my dear

Loneliness is just frozen fear



Yes it is

Maybe i can melt it

Maybe i can melt it

I'd like to try

Oh oh oh oh
