Cover art for Scared lyrics by Albert Hammond Jr.

Aren't we all scared deep down inside? I love how this song goes from fairly upbeat to this somber mood when the chorus takes place, it is a great mixture of emotion in everway.

It definitly seems like he is singing about a girl who he is probably in a relationship with (or attempting to be in) but she has so many reservations that it is making things difficult, Albert could have wrote this song as a lullaby of sorts, to calm her nerves and put her at ease. But I think it can basically speak to all of humnaity as well with the overwhelmingly perfect lyrics:

I know you’re still there because you’re scared that you’ll lose everybody I know you’re still there because you’re scared that you’ll lose everything I know you’re still there because you’re scared
