Restricted patient
Or so they say
I choose to stay here, phobic fears
Nerve endings eaten away
I'm out of touch
With all in sight
Don't close my eyes
I fear that death
Will come collecting tonight
Distracted ruins
Oh can't you see?
I'm nervous, frightened,
Tormented by everything
You'll never know
Just what it's like
You can't imagine
What's disturbing,
What is eating my mind
In constant paranoia
Keeps me looking over my shoulder
I'm hiding 'til the fear is over
Running down the street
I'll never look to see just what it might be
That I fear so much
In my life,
Or in my death
Doctor, help me
At any cost
Please make it go away
Before I am totally lost
Inside a shell and locked away
No fear can touch me
When I scream,
None can hear what I say
But is it gone, or did it stay?
My phobophobic thoughts
God, will they ever go away?
And leave me be, I doubt they will
The disease of fear has got me
And it's in for the kill
The fracture of my mind
It will destroy me slowly
In the end, I lay there breathless
Six feet under, dirt will cover
The headstone reads
His was a frantic mind,
Less human being
Destroyed by fear
Of everything that could be
I've witnessed fear
For all it's worth
I can't imagine someone
Causing its own birth
The human hell
Or so we say
But is it fear the only
Thing that we are prey?
In life, not death
Define to me
A state of coldness life
Where I can be free
Of mortal choice
Burden of life
A questioned fate of fear
Or am I to die?
I've seen now some of what
I've done done
A disease now once delivered
On those poor souls I pressure on
Unearthly cold they shiver
Insertion of fear a blood lacing tear
I draw from cowards breaking
Psychiatrists I tie in knots
This mind in fear is taken...
Doctor, help me
At any cost
Please make it go away
Before I am totally lost
Inside a shell and locked away
No fear can touch me
When I scream,
None can hear what I say
But is it gone, or did it stay?
My phobophobic thoughts
God, will they ever go away?
And leave me be, I doubt they will
The disease of fear has got me
And it's in for the kill
The fracture of my mind
It will destroy me slowly
In the end, I lay there breathless
Six feet under, dirt will cover
The headstone reads
His was a frantic mind,
Less human being
Destroyed by fear
Of everything that could be
