Analysis of scary
Sitting at the kitchen table looking out the window...
The blinds are close, and I wonder where I should go.
I feel safe in my own sancturay...
The world to me can seem so scary.
people stealing cell phones,
calling it apple picking.
Pit bulls attacking the elderly...
Yes, the world to me is scary.
