Fear, fear, fear
this and that
but not that
pretend
to fear that
but not this
and can't
forget that
Fear, fear, fear
what am I afraid of?
Of you, of it, of them?
What is it?
I question the mirror
to understand
why so fearful
my friend?
what lies inside?
fear, fear, fear
builds up over time
eating away
every day
a parasite
infested
in your veins
let go of it
run for it
face it
embrace it
fear
don't fear it
look in the mirror
it'll become clearer
don't be afraid
you aren't trapped
you only think
you've been
let go, let go, let go
my friend
