I gain a little confidence,
with every single word.
I begin to feel secure in,
this promise that I've sworn.
Won't let anyone see,
that scared little girl I'm hiding.
I use the false confidence to,
keep her from crying.
I take a timid step,
all the while seeming quite secure.
Moving steadily forward, scared,
but sure, for her.

I take a timid step,
all the while seeming quite secure.
Moving steadily forward, scared,
but sure, for her.
