[Verse] I could be somewhere on a beach Smokin' up on somethin' sweet In my own head Goin' to a world so far away But I'm stuck in bed in the same damn place Said I could be on a stage Hearin' them callin' my name Could be famous in another world And I could get the girl But I don't [Chorus] 'Cause I'm just a boy Afraid of the world Too scared to live And too scared to be hurt I'm just a boy Afraid of the world Too scared to live And too scared to love [Verse 2] I could be where you are right now When you're low I could bring you out I could make you smile when you're feelin' down Could've made you laugh when you wanted to frown And I could've been by your side 'Cause I could be your guy Could be a different person in another life But I don't 'cause [Chorus] I'm just a boy Afraid of the world Too scared to live And too scared to be hurt I'm just a boy Afraid of the world Too scared to live And too scared to love [Bridge] Said I could've been So many things Said I could've been So many things [Chorus] I'm just a boy Afraid of the world Too scared to live And too scared to be hurt I'm just a boy Afraid of the world Too scared to live And too scared to love
