Fear

There is madness
In the tremor beneath my skin
In the sweat running down my back
In the breath that I’m holding in
While I tense for the next attack
I try to ride it out, but its taking its toll
I try to hide from it, but it knows where to go
I try to fight it, but it scares me so
The fear is solid, the fear is real
Fear is the only thing I feel
Fear and frustration will be my degradation
And it’s fear you see driving you away from me
There is something
That I can’t put my finger on
At the edge of my consciousness
And it stays with me dusk till dawn
What it is I can only guess
How can I beat it down, when I can’t fight what I can’t see?
I have to kill it before it kills me
I have to find out how strong I can be
The fear is solid, the fear is real
Fear is the only thing I feel
Fear and frustration will be my degradation
And it’s fear you see driving you away from me
The fear is solid, the fear is real
Fear is the only thing I feel
Fear and frustration will be my degradation
And it’s fear you see driving you away from me
Honey, baby, it’s not so bad
Easy to say when you’ve never had
This hanging over your head
The fear is solid, the fear is real
Fear is the only thing I feel
Fear and frustration will be my degradation
And it’s fear you see driving you away from me
(Driving you away, away, away,)
The fear is solid, the fear is real
Fear is the only thing I feel
Fear and frustration will be my degradation
And it’s fear you see driving you away from me
The fear is solid, the fear is real
