A creative piece for Copperworm’s Peter Wolfe on new single ‘Fear Lives In Me’

Fear Lives In Me

When will this all end?

Will our foes become our friends?

I don’t think so

But I don’t know,

So I let the fear inside me grow.

I tend to it

Make amends to it

I fret away

It won’t let me get away.

When fear lives in me

There’s no place to hide away.

A demon with many faces

Drawing me into its darkened places

All hollow, but I will follow

By hook or by crook,

Take back what you took

Find strength in what you mistook

But sometimes I don’t dare to look?

Embed, this fear inside my head

My being, all knowing, all seeing

Still I let fear reside

And tell it to get back inside.

My health held in a ransom demand

A trust fund of mistrust, not in my hands,

March to tune where fear is the band,

Only to jump not seeing where I land.

It’s a host parasitic,

A ghost apocalyptic, 

Ashen faces seen in triptych

Taking hold, paralytic.

If fear is inside

It is my longest, darkest night,

By break of dawn

It should be gone,

But it chooses to remain.

I can’t control

Body, mind or soul

Will I ever be the same again?

I gave fear the key

A complexity of not knowing,

In this life am I coming or going?

I’m on my knees

So easy to please

The imposter

The Snollygoster,

I’ll lock it up now

And throw away the key,

Only I will know that fear lives in me.
