Fear

(album: The Pursuit Begins When This Portrayal Of Life Ends - 2007)

Guilt reflects
And then leaves the rest to me
It started with a flash of light
A fist's grip was loosened just a bit
There's a constant slip out of the positive
And you waste more perfect time than you tend to give

All the fear and all the cares of the world
Never forced themselves into my arms
It was your fear that helped me
Your fear that got me to move
Straight from your heart into their sight

Grace and hope
I'm sure are on the way
It ended with a twist of fate
And now the hearts are breaking just a bit
And the consequence was negative
So you killed more precious lives then you had let live

All the fear and all the cares of the world
Never forced themselves into my arms
It was your fear that helped me
Your fear that got me to move
Straight from your heart into their sight

For shame on you
Who cares about me anyway
I don't mind you
It'd mean so much if you'd just save me
Save me

All the fear and all the cares of the world
Never forced themselves into my arms
It was your fear that helped me
Your fear that got me to move
Straight from your heart into their sight
