Scared to death


Dozens of eyes look at me
sing and play my guitar
and I’m so far, somewhere
everywhere, anywhere but here
I’m scared to death
I’m cold, I’m hot
I wish somebody would give
me a shot, to end my nightmare
I’m so tired of trying
praying for a clot

to kill me now
I reach out but no one’s here
just me and my fear
echoing back and forth
I’m losing my grip
No one but me can hear
my shouting fear
I am my own savior

I cannot escape my desire
to heal and cry out myself
again on the stage, I’m fighting my cage
I sing my fears, self-hate and rage
and I’m scared to death
My senses are blurred, I tremble
and still I insist to be heard
Somehow I keep on standing
waiting to end this song
this pain or my life

and it feels like I’m dying
I reach out but no one’s here
just me and my fear
echoing back and forth
I’m losing my grip
No one but me can hear
my shouting fear
I am my own savior

I’m scared to death…
