I'm scared of everything I do not know

And the pain it brings is an indescribable feeling of dissatisfication

I know I have nothing to worry about

So why is this phobia engraving fear in my heart

I love everything I shouldn't

And the hate it brings, I take out on myself

I know what I need to do

So why can't I let fear escape my soul and vanish

I'm a parallel line going all directions

And the confusion swallows me whole, leaving hopelessness behind

I know that I should let it go

So why is it so hard to trust in my friends, trust in myself

When will this desperation end

When will I finally stop acting out of fear and live again

When will the truth overcome the phobia

I'm standing face to face with what I don't know

And I'm scared

Scared to let them help me, fearing I'll be let down again

Scared to take a chance, afraid I'll fail just like last time

Scared to believe there's hope for me, someone who loves me

I wear it on my sleeve, they all know I'm scared

Frightening memories haunt me, distort me

How can I move on like this

A death grip on my sanity, not ready to step out

Afraid of death, afraid of life

I watch as the sun passes over me, day after day

Fear twists the images into troublesome ideas, confrontation

I'll walk through the darkness, hiding in the shadows of my phobia

Watching as it all wastes away into nothing
