My heart screams at me      "DON'T LET LIFE PASS YOU BY!" but my battered soul sits huddled in the corner       telling me that I don't deserve love                                        or happiness that these things that give me hope will end up being a mistake that will lead to even more pain in my life But I'm tired of being scared       and denying myself            all of the good things in life So I'm jumping into this       with my eyes open            and hoping I can survive this one

Fear is a Mighty Dictator
My heart screams at me      "DON'T LET LIFE PASS YOU BY!" but my battered soul sits huddled in the corner       telling me that I don't deserve love                                        or happiness that these things that give me hope will end up being a mistake that will lead to even more pain in my life But I'm tired of being scared       and denying myself            all of the good things in life So I'm jumping into this       with my eyes open            and hoping I can survive this one
