Don't be nervous Don't freak out Don't be scared Keep that tear out You're the only one you can count Don't let it out Keep the fear inside No, don't be a coward Don't say it loud.

But we were all together. One time he tried getting into our compartment To just let his 3 year old sick one be relieved from the scorching heat And was brutally discharged And one time I almost missed the train on one station And he lent his hand out to me.
