Fear Lyrics by Blue October

Sway

2013

[Verse 1:]
All my life
Been running from a pain in me
A feeling I don't understand
Holding me down
So rain on me, underwater
All I am, getting harder
A heavy weight, I carry around

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
Fear in itself, will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself, and you will walk, oh-ohh
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

[Verse 2:]
I'm up here
I'm looking at the way down there
I'm staring through the I don't care
And it's staring back at me, yeah
The beauty is
I'm learning how to face my beast
Starting now to find some peace
And set myself free, yeah

[Pre-Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
Fear in itself, will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself, and you will walk, oh-ohh
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

[Bridge:]
I'm moving on
Oh God, just move on

[Pre-Chorus]
Today
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
Get back up
Get up, up
Feel it, fear, wow

[Chorus]
Now fear, fear in itself will use you up
And then breaks you down like you're never enough
Yeah, I used to fall

[Outro:]
Breathe
Ask for more
If you're bitter still
Ask him to help you carry on
