I stumble into the unknown
Afraid of what I'll find
What is it that I fear?

Quick small steps
An inch away from home
What is it that I fear?

Don't leave me here alone
Sun, please don't set just yet
Death and illness be my strangers
Stay fake---Bad dreams, cold sweat

Cold metal in my hand
Heartbeat racing
Sideways glances

Spider webs
His whereabouts when mayhem strikes
Unfamiliar sounds

Things are changing
Where do we go from here?
They're getting older now
What is it that I fear?
