Текст песни: Big Bird + перевод

I’m afraid of the way that I live my life

I’m afraid of the way I don’t

I’m afraid of the things that I wanna do but I won’t

I’m afraid of God

I’m afraid to believe

And I’m afraid of all the loved ones that I made leave

I’m afraid that my dog doesn’t love me anymore

I’m afraid of the social laziness that let Kitty Genovese die

And I’m afraid of the mob mentality

That makes otherwise normal people go blind

I’m afraid of the way the world works

And I’m afraid of the words in my notebooks

I’m afraid that you all know that I am a pervert

But the Big Red Bird that lives under the city

Doesn’t give a damn about me

And it dies every night

By burning alive

I’m afraid of my grandfather’s cancer

And I’m afraid of my mom’s dying arm

I’m afraid that I’ve somehow caused my family harm

I’m afraid that the ones I love won’t have enough

I’m afraid that the ones I love won’t have enough

It’s harder to be yourself

Than it is to be anybody else

I wish I were a little less of a coward

But the Big Red Bird that lives under the city

Doesn’t give a damn about me

And it dies every night

So I bought a knife

I am a knife

I am a Knife Man
