I think this song is about an existential depression.
I mean, when you have everything (for instance, in this song, might be about having the perfect girlfriend or the love you always dreamt to have), but when you reach that point of Perfection you seem to feel a Void inside, due to philosophic questions that make you think about all your decisions (like, is this everything I wanted?)
The "fears" are when you, by the hand of this void you feel, think you can turn into a crazy person or ending alone for dissapointing the person with whom you are.
This is just my interpretation, as this happened to me with my first girlfriend when I touched the top of "the perfect moment" and my life and thoughts broken and I sort of "awakened", but the moment felt very very miserable and very cynical and no-belonging (It may be cynical. But it all seems wrong).
And this song always remembers me of that important phase in my life.
I love this song, I'm not a fan of Pendulum but I'm a real fan of Steven Wilson and his work. He is really a genious, and pendulum did great here with him.

Behind my eyes Is rage alone But you don't understand It was all home-grown
Behind my eyes Is rage alone But you don't understand It was all home-grown
really doesn't mean that much to me about what I explained, but well, it stills rings me that phase...
