This song is also the tittle of their album. It is about being afraid but the song is telling you to not be afraid. Nobody knows how much time we have, but that is no reason to live all our time in fear. There are people who will judge you and Jenna is singing this song to tell you to screw those people. Henna sings about how she used to be afraid of what people thought of her. When she over came that fear and no longer cared about other's thoughts on her, she people more free. She go to do what she loved without worry.
Well it's a sad truth, living with these hungry hands.
It's a shame, we don't know how much we have.
We're scared of what we do not know.
No matter where we wanna go.
We wait for it, to find you, to find you.
But the truth is far behind you now.
Time to say it out loud:
What are you so scared of?
Judgements not unfair.
It's what we've learned to see.
What are you afraid of?
This is not unheard of.
Nothing's how it wasn't always meant to be, always meant to be.
And you can go on thinking that you're so hard done by,
And don't pretend you've worked so hard, just scraping by.
It's not a crime to see the light.
It doesn't mean you sleep better at night.
It's not a crime to wear a smile.
So what are you so scared of?
Judgements not unfair.
It's what we've learned to see.
What are you afraid of?
This is not unheard of.
Nothing's how it wasn't always meant to be, always meant to be.
Always meant to be.
I used to be scared, I used to be like you.
I used to care, then I came unglued.
Well, it's something we all have to learn to do.
I used to be scared, I used to be like you.
I used to care, then I came unglued, unglued.
What are you so scared of?
What are you so afraid of?
What are you so scared of?
So, what are you so scared of?
Judgement's not unfair.
It's what we've learned to see.
