Virgil and the Beancat

Lying in the window
She looked at him and said
Sometimes I feel like screaming
All these things in my head

He said I think I know you
For we have spent some time
Yours is a word I know well
I could almost make it mine

Chorus:
But I’m scared of what I don’t know
And scared of what I do
I’m bound by these old things
Though I long for something new

She said I have a brother
But it has been a while
And most of the time I feel
Like I’m an only child

He said there is a big place
Out there somewhere
I’ve been there once or twice
But every time I go
I get so scared

Chorus:
Cause I’m scared of what I don’t know
And scared of what I do
I’m bound by these old things
Though I long for something new

And did you know
That when I run
Around at night
I keep the front door
In my line of sight
I would just walk away
But there’s just one word
That I really, really, really
Want to say…

Chorus:
I’m scared of what I don’t know
And scared of what I do
I’m bound by these old things
Though I long for something new
