Lyrics Levellers – The Fear

Do you wake up every day
In a world that seems crazy
A world you love to hate
Are you scared or do you feel pretty safe

You know it feels like you’re going insane
I’ve done everything you told me
To take away the pain
Then you change my medication again
It’s getting harder to tell
Just who or what’s insane

Do your nightmares tear you apart
Do you wake up screaming
Shouting in the dark
The demons keep you awake
Does the clock tick more slowly
With every breath you take

You know it feels like you’re going insane
I’ve done everything you told me
To take away the pain
Then you change my medication again
It’s getting harder to tell
Just who or what’s insane

Does each day seem like the next
You turn on the morning
‘Cause turning offs the best
Do think that it will never change
Or does mass self delusion
Meddle with your brain

You know it feels like you’re going insane
I’ve done everything you told me
To take away the pain
Then you change my medication again
It’s getting harder to tell
Just who or what’s insane

You see I think I know it all
I think I know the way
You’ve given me the power
By making me insane

You know it feels like I’m going insane
Well maybe you love me better a little bit deranged
But it may be a different way
If it keeps on the way it’s going
There’ll be no one staying sane
