Lyrics Blue October – Fear

All my life
Been running from a pain in me
A feeling I don’t understand
Is holding me down

So rain on me
Underwater
All I am, getting harder
A heavy weight
I carry around

Today
I don’t have to fall apart
I don’t have to be afraid
I don’t have to let the damage consume me
My shadows see through me

‘Cause fear in itself
Will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself
And you will walk

And now fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
Like you were never enough
Yeah, I used to fall, now I get back up

I’m up here
I’m looking at the way down there
And I’m staring through the I-don’t-care
It’s staring back at me

The beauty is
I’m learning how to face my beast
Starting now to find some peace

Today
I don’t have to fall apart
I don’t have to be afraid
I don’t have to let the damage consume me
My shadows see through me

‘Cause fear in itself
Will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself
And you will walk

And now fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
Like you were never enough
Yeah, I used to fall, now I get back up

I’m moving on
Oh, God, just move on

Today
I don’t have to fall apart
And I don’t have to be afraid
Get back up
Get up, up

Fear, fear, away
No, no longer

Now fear, fear in itself
Can use you up
It breaks you down
You’re never enough
I used to fall

Breathe
Ask for more
If you’re bitter still
Ask Him to help you carry on
