Scared to Say Words Hanging on Your Lips (Fear Itself)

Caught in a web of truth and lies
I see confusion behind your eyes
Pages dampened by all my tears
As death is upon us, as are our fears.

Fears of falling, fear of death
Fear of rejection, fear of saying yes
Fear unfolding, fear disclosed
Fear for everything, for the life you chose.

Alone and lonely are two different things
Tainted feelings are what love brings
Pain and sorrow, emotions cast
Away with the future, bring on the past.

Fears of dying, fears of love
Fear of hatred, or just the fear of
Fears of war, of fear itself
Fear of what you've never felt.
