Carrollton - Not Afraid Of The Dark Lyrics

I'm not afraid of the dark, but I used to be
That little kid hiding under covers, everytime the lights turned out
That was then this is now, and the monsters ain't in the closet
The stuff that scares me most, is hiding right outside my front door

I've grown up and gotten stronger, but my problems got bigger too
Days go by I'm brought to realize that I'll never stop needing you
So I bow my head and say my prayers, I'm asking you for strength
I can't make it on my own, there ain't no way
Father

Used to run far from home, when life got too hard
Retreat to that treeline down the road, under a night sky full of stars
Man I've come so far, don't even live in that house anymore
If I'm being honest, I'm still running in my heart

All those nights, you held me tight
I still need to feel you near me

All those days, I ran away
You were waiting right there on me
