We all have fears, but until we are forced to face them
We don't realize to what extent they control us.
And until we realize our fears, we can never overcome them.

So, until, until i'm over this
i will always turn frigid, eyes wide with fear
it's the worst feeling;
It's like being dunked in ice water
naked in front of everyone you know!

But you are so scared and so cold
you move, so you stand there
a dear in head lights. frozen.
And you want so badly to look fear in the eye and say
"I'm over it"
but you can't tear your eyes away from the nothingness,
of fear in front of you

And it ***** because, Yes!
I want to kiss you!
but, it terrifies every fiber of my being
and there's nothing   i can do

And you just pull me in close and tell me it's alright
even when i turn into a rag doll
even after i turn so rigid its hard to move
you hold me close till my demons go away
and tell me it's okay
