Here Comes the Fear

Scared that I won’t be the best
Scared of laughter from all the rest
Scared of the high standards set
Scared that voice won’t let me forget
Scared of little things like snakes and planes
Scared I drink to mask the pain
Scared I can’t love her as she deserves
Scared she’ll see I’m a bag of nerves
Scared I won’t live before I die
I lie awake, too scared to cry
