Dear Fear

You've been here by my side, yet I'm still lonely When all the lights go out, your shadow grows Despite all the times I've tried, you still own me The scars from our battleground, no one knows I find the words, you drown them out I think I'm safe, you make me doubt No one wins in this game, and who's to blame? Can't we get what we want, take a moment to stop And breathe? Maybe to set me free I'll let you tell me the world you see I'm not afraid Oh, and maybe The monster I thought you'd be Is changing the closer you get to me I'm not afraid Oh, maybe You filled my head with lies, so convincing Your cost is always more than I can pay Whenever I try to hide, you always find me A picture inside my head, without a face I find the words, you drown them out I think I'm safe, you make me doubt No one wins in this game, and who's to blame? Can't we get what we want, take a moment to stop And breathe? Maybe to set me free I'll let you tell me the world you see I'm not afraid Oh, and maybe The monster I thought you'd be Is changing the closer you get to me I'm not afraid Oh, maybe I surrender honestly To what is and what will be Your notes fill in the symphony in me Maybe to set me free I'll let you tell me the world you see I'm not afraid Oh, and maybe The monster I thought you'd be Is changing the closer you get to me I'm not afraid Oh, maybe Oh, maybe Oh, I'm set free
