I think it is "there will not be a me to be scared." It's a wonderful line. It's the rejection of a permanent self. It's an amazing song about being content, even if you have very little. He's happy just being with this person, making enough money to take her out, to pay his rent, and it sounds like that's all he needs. There are some Buddhist-like themes being explored here; lines like "too many people live imprisoned/stuck somewhere between the is and isn't" and "...we'll no longer think on/what it was or what it wasn't" hint at the Buddhist idea of impermanence.
