When you’re running for dear life and there’s nowhere else to turn   When a candle’s left alone on fire something just might burn   It’s called fear   Eating what’s left inside   When the current moves you quickly and steers you To The rocks   When a mailman wears a mask and brings a Ticking box   It’s called fear   Leaving marks on the body   Leaving one hash mark every time you saw me   There’s a stranger in the lobby   There were footsteps on the roof   But there is no proof or reason not to hide   And that’s the gospel truth   When fire comes like rain and all the fish float to the top of the sea   Fear   When animals start to talk when a red horse begins to scream   Fear fear fear   It pours blood into every dream   Turning midnight into daydreams   The water has turned to red   Someone you know might be dead   but that’s not a nice thing to have said   Be sure to look under your bed   Fear   It’s hard being alone when you ain’t got no home   So maybe there’s no bed at all   Fear
