lyrics

fear’s left me faceless
fear’s left me blind
fear’s left me brainless
fear’s left me naked in the center of my mind

the little voice that betrays says,
“everything’s OK, you’re damned to hell
somebody’s out there, you’re all alone”

it shrieks through the veins in my head
twisting me in contradiction
trying to find happiness that’s not delusion
trying to touch heaven that’s not religion
the little voice that betrays says,
“this is the moment of your decision”
