The Fear (Demo)

You sit and wait for the last straw

Never knowing when crime will strike you down

Society has sentenced you to be a prisoner

A prisoner of your body and your home

CHORUS:

Imagine what it's like

To be imprisoned

In your own home

Not knowing which

Day could be your last

Hide those savings

Now withering away, just like a flower

You curl up and you lie in foetal position

Your life has been reversed, you end it as a child

No longer can you define wring or right

Can you trust

Justice to deal

All fair cards

Or once again

Will the culprit remain free

And the victims of honesty

Left to shiver in solitude

Nothing to comfort, not even truth

Euthanasia isn't your answer

You have your right to live

But the pressure you are under

Means you take more than you give

You're afraid of living

You're afraid of dying

More of you drop each day

Trying to protect your life's work

But we all grow old

And become more vulnerable

Easy prey for the thief

And thus

A PEER OF THE FEAR
