One. The blade across my scarred skin Dull and rusted It a long ago friend I fear to see But everyone keeps tempting me The glances, the words, the whispered phrases They play through my ears like broken music none can bear But bear it, I must For I fear the blade with its ****** rust Two. Athazagoraphobia Drowning in a room of people Alone and forgotten I struggle for air as I sit alone Wondering what I have done to be cast out on my own Like a boulder, the depression weighs on on me Why can't you see!? I fear, my dear, you have forgotten me Three. A white face and a black cloak A skeletal hand around my throat A laugh that chills my weary being And endless pits that stare at me Your hands are acid as you carry me to Hell While no one can hear my stangled yell Not a thing, but a person, alas I fear, yet crave, Death's burning grasp Four. The ****** hands taunt me And her hollow gaze holds me This undead girl is Hell itself Placed her to torture me Not a day goes by without her presence Nor a thought through my head without her acceptance She controls everything I see Cuts me and laughs as I bleed Yet, no one understands when I plead and plead For, you see, my greatest fear is me

Four Fears
One. The blade across my scarred skin Dull and rusted It a long ago friend I fear to see But everyone keeps tempting me The glances, the words, the whispered phrases They play through my ears like broken music none can bear But bear it, I must For I fear the blade with its ****** rust Two. Athazagoraphobia Drowning in a room of people Alone and forgotten I struggle for air as I sit alone Wondering what I have done to be cast out on my own Like a boulder, the depression weighs on on me Why can't you see!? I fear, my dear, you have forgotten me Three. A white face and a black cloak A skeletal hand around my throat A laugh that chills my weary being And endless pits that stare at me Your hands are acid as you carry me to Hell While no one can hear my stangled yell Not a thing, but a person, alas I fear, yet crave, Death's burning grasp Four. The ****** hands taunt me And her hollow gaze holds me This undead girl is Hell itself Placed her to torture me Not a day goes by without her presence Nor a thought through my head without her acceptance She controls everything I see Cuts me and laughs as I bleed Yet, no one understands when I plead and plead For, you see, my greatest fear is me
