FRIGHT
Fear of failure
 Letting you down
 Fear of hurting your feelings
 Would you forgive me?
 Fear of being wrong
 I can't always be right
 Fear of falling in love
 Or falling flat on my face
 Fear of trusting my heart
 Cause I never use my head
 Fear to speak up
 Sometimes I regret not holding back
 Fear of holding on
 Or maybe it's letting go
 Fear of my emotions
 Those mood swings control me
 Fear of my future
 My past still shackles me
 Fear of being alone
 But I can't stand to be surrounded
 Fear of not succeeding
 But I'm not chasing after success
 Fear of what lurks in the night
 Or what hides from me in the day
 Fear of being called out
 Still I want people to know my name
 Fear of being left out
 But standing out isn't always the right way
 Scared of the scale
 But I always weigh my options
 Fear of not being good enough
 Maybe perfection doesn't want my company
 Fear of no self control
 What happens if I lose myself?
 Fear of being guilty
 But too proud to ask for help
 Fear of being ashamed
 But some things I can't apologize for
 Fear of being satisfied
 I'm searching for something more
