Fear Is a Liar

He sits and he waits At the edge of my bed Until I slip away He gets inside my head He says, "You can't escape The game that I play, the hell that I raise" But fear is a liar And he's dragging me down Making me question All the love that I've found Crawling around in my head when it's late and there's no one around Fear is a liar But I ain't backing down He's taken control Of the way that I move It's taking a toll And he's twisting the truth He says, "You can't escape The game that I play, the hell that I raise" But fear is a liar And he's dragging me down Making me question All the love that I've found Crawling around in my head when it's late and there's no one around Fear is a liar But I ain't backing down Scared of the dark, of the ghost in the closet Scared of the cops and an empty apartment Scared of running into all of my exes And not living up to what I expected my life To be Fear is a liar And he's dragging me down Making me question All the love that I've found Crawling around in my head when it's late And there's no one around, yeah Fear is a liar and I ain't backing down Fear is a liar and I ain't backing down
