FEAR

Try as hard as you want
Try as hard as you will
You cannot hide those scares
Not till they’ve had their fill
They make you waste away
They make you want to die
You can’t hide that reason
That always makes you cry
Fear has swallowed you up whole
And you don’t see an end coming soon
Your harsh life has made you cold
Lost your strength so you release your hold
Pray as much as you want
Pray as much as you will
No they won’t go away
They haven’t had their fill
Run as far as you can
Run as far as you wish
They will still find you there
As you are on their list
Fear has swallowed you up whole
And you don’t see an end coming soon
Your harsh life has made you cold
Lost your strength so you release your hold
Fear has swallowed up your soul
And you can’t see an end coming soon
Your hard life has made you cold
Lost your strength so you release your hold
ABOUT THE HOW’S AND WHY’S
Written by: Emma Louise Woods
How come I like to rhyme?
Why is time slipping away?
How come I like to sleep?
Why am I wanting someday?
I feel so small and helpless
I don’t have a say in how the world works
I want to cry I’m confused
Someone please tell me what do I do now?
How come I wish to be
Someone else that is not me
Why do I like to cower?
How come I hate flowers?
I feel so small and helpless
I don’t have a say in how the world works
I want to cry I’m confused
Someone please tell me what do I do now?
How come things don’t go my way?
And why do I like to cry?
How come I want to grow up?
I want to know how and why
I feel so small and helpless
I don’t have a say in how the world works
I want to cry I’m confused
Someone please tell me what do I do now?
