Fear

Your fear came from a place unknown Sat down, made itself at home It called your name the whole night through Until it got the best of you It's wide awake and never rests Follows each one of your steps And it hits you hard with ruthless fists Can I kill it with a kiss? I wish I could blow it off Find a way to shut its hungry mouth Change the locks and chase it out I'll shield you 'til it disappears All my love against your fear It won't let you get away It teases you with whispered words Holds you in a cold embrace I set the table, cooked for two But it walked through the door with you It eats from your plate, it rules the room It's pouring poison on your spoon I wish I could blow it off Find a way to shut its hungry mouth Change the locks and chase it out I'll shield you 'til it disappears All my love against your fear We'll find a way to shut its hungry mouth Change the locks and chase it out I'll shield you 'til it disappears It's wide awake I'll keep watch until you sleep I'll stay up until it leaves It left too soon Thought it had won But my love will roar Your fear will run We'll watch it run We'll change the locks and chase it out I'll shield you 'til it disappears All my love against your fear We'll find a way to shut its hungry mouth Chase it down the street and out of town I'll shield you 'til it disappears All my love against your fear
