When for so long you can't get a job for reasons that seem specious, you you finally do have it, you are constantly afraid of losing it.

Fear
what am i most afraid of?
losing my health?
losing my job?
losing my family?
losing my virility?
losing my self-image?
losing my dignity?
losing my sanity?
losing my life?
or ending up alone
in the darkness
without reason or form
or direction.
what am i most afraid of?
and why?

All Mine (Demo)
I've got blood on my hands from this little timid life
It's just like a man, to trust me with all his might
I've got mud on my feet, when I kicked you back 3 wks.
If I promised to keep my mouth shut, can I sit her while you speak
Finally mine, your finally all mine
Finally mine, your finally all mine
Where did it get me, all mine
What did it teach me, all mine
Somebody stop me, I'm losing control again
I've got honor to earn
But I guess I lost my turn
When will I learn, to treat you with concern
Finally mine, your finally all mine
Finally mine, your finally all mine
Where did it get me, all mine
Look what it taught me, all mine
Somebody stop me, I'm losing control
Where did it get me, all mine
Look what it taught me, all mine
Somebody stop me, I'm losing control
All mine
Where did it get me, all mine
Look what it taught me, all mine
Somebody stop me, I'm losing control

All Mine
Ive got blood on my hands
From this little timid life
Its just like a man
To trust me with all his might
Ive got blood on my feet
When I kicked you back 3 weeks
If I promised to keep my mouth shut
Can I sit here while you speak
Finally mine
Youre finally all mine
Finally mine
Youre finally all mine
Where did it get me, all mine
What did it teach me, all mine
Somebody stop me
Im losing control again
Ive got honor to earn
But I guess I lost my turn
When will I learn
To treat you with concern
Finally mine
Youre finally all mine

Youre finally all mine
Where did it get me, all mine
What did it teach me, all mine

Where did it get me, all mine
Look what it taught me, all mine
Somebody stop me

Fear Of Dying
I'm not afraid of standing still
I'm just afraid of being bored
I'm not afraid of speaking my mind
I'm just afraid of being ignored
I'm not afraid of feeling
and I'm not afraid of trying
I'm just afraid of losing
And I am afraid of dying
Without you yes I do and I hope that you do too
Without you yes I do
Without you yes I do and I hope that you do too
Without you yes I...
I'm not afraid of being sick
I'm more afraid of being well
I'm not afraid
Put the gun in my hand
I'm just afraid it will hurt like (hurt like) hell
I'm not afraid of screaming
and I'm not afraid of crying
I'm just afraid of forgetting
And I am afraid of dying
Without you yes I do and I hope that you do too
Without you yes I do
Without you yes I do and I hope that you do too
Without you yes I...
Fear of
Fear of
Fear of
Fear of
I'm not afraid of looking ugly
I couldn't care what they say
I'm not afraid of happy endings
I'm just afraid my life won't work that way
I'm not afraid of forgiveness
I absolve you everything
I'm not afraid of lying...
But I am afraid of dying
Without you yes I do and I hope that you do too
Without you yes I do
Without you all I do is sit and think about you
Without you yes I...

Losing Streak
Was I wrong about the world?
It's a beautiful new place
Where else could a creep like me
Meet such a pretty face?
Meeting everyday with the rising sun
Looking up, it's looking like
My losing streak is done
Used to always feel like
Wished that I was dressed better
Never had a lot of luck
Until I finally met her
Feeling like the weepin' weighed a ton
Lifted off my shoulders now
My losing streak is done
Always felt like giving in
To the feeling I can't win
But I took it on the chin
Now I'm finally cashin' in
??? everyday with the rising sun
Looking up, it's looking like
My losing streak is done
My losing streak is done
I said my losing streak is done
Did you hear me, I said
My losing streak is done

She Masters Now The Art Of Losing
at first she lost a coin
then her purse and then her bag and then her blouse
and then her skirt and pants and then it went back to losing her underwears
until she becomes naked
she gets used to losing and when she finally lost herself
she did not complain
she is used to losing she has mastered losing as a form of art itself
she has become an artist and losing has become her main business
now, i have loved her and i am having this problem
of finding her
i guess i must learn too, this art of losing

I'm Afraid
I had suffered to have you
I has risk my life to find you
I am not afraid of death
I am not afraid to fight
I'm afraid of losing you '
I'm afraid of saying goodbye
I'm afraid of dying alone

Im Losing You
Aaaaahhhhhhooooohhhh!
Here in some strangers room,
Late in the afternoon,
What am I doing here at all?
Aint no doubt about it,
Im losing you,
Im losing you.
Somehow the wires have crossed,
Communications lost,
Cant even get you on the telephone-ah!
Just got to shout about it,
Im losing you,
Im losing you.
Well, here in the valley of indecision,
I dont know what to do,
I feel you slipping away,
I feel you slipping away-yi-yay-yi-yay-yi-yay-yi-yay.
Im losing you,
Im losing you.
Well, now, you say youre not getting enough,
But I remind you of all that bad, bad, bad stuff,
So what the hell am I supposed to do?
Just put a band-aid on it?
And stop the bleeding now,
Stop the bleeding now.
Well -
Ho!
Oh-ho!
Hey!
Mm, Im losing you, oh!
Im losing you.
Well, well, well, I know I hurt you then,
But hell, that was way back when,
Well, do you still have to carry that cross?
Rock it!
Dont wanna hear about it.
Im losing you,
Im losing you.
Dont wanna lose you now!
Well -
Well, long, long, long, gone,
Long, long.

Sonnet: There Are Reasons for All Things
There must be reasons for the shaking leaves;
There must be reasons for the swaying trees;
There must be reasons for the drying sheaves;
There must be reasons causing any breeze.
There must be reasons for the waves at sea;
There must be reasons for ripples in pond;
There must be reasons for the sea briny;
There must be reasons for a mutual bond.
There must be reasons for the changing climes;
There must be reasons for both drought and rain;
There must be reasons for good and bad times;
There must be reasons for a boon or bane.
There must be reasons for all things on earth;
But not much reasons why men sin since birth!

Fundamental of Liar Chapter XCVI: Fear
I don’t afraid of being old, I’m only afraid of being weak
I don’t afraid of being ugly, I’m only afraid of being useless
I don’t afraid of being nameless, I’m only afraid of being not loved
I don’t afraid of being lost, I’m only afraid of being blind
I don’t afraid of being dumb, I’m only afraid of being hopeless
I don’t afraid of being poor, I’m only afraid of being ungrateful
I don’t afraid of being loser, I’m only afraid of being coward
I don’t afraid of being bound, I’m only afraid of being fake
I don’t afraid of being wrong, I’m only afraid of being oblivious
I don’t afraid of being suffered, I’m only afraid of being surrender
I don’t afraid of being alone, I’m only afraid of being bored
I don't afraid of being loss, I'm only afraid of being lied

Statue
for how long can i be a statue in this house
stuffed
afraid to make the wrong move
that you finally discover that i am human too
........it will depend when you finally leave
tomorrow
next week will be quite long for our pretenses
we will be humans again
you are always cruel
in your quest for perfection

Loving Others
I have always been afraid
of losing people I love
But sometimes
I keep asking myself
Is there anyone who's
afraid of losing me too?
Or Who care about me
As much as I care others
Maybe sometimes
Make us think
Loving others
Feel better and good.

Instinction
Cheap bed,in the red
Sleep the words out of your head
Cold floor,nice and raw
Eat the meat thats on the floor
High tide, some disguise
Loving makes the cream taste nice
New shore,final score
Fresh demand,Im wanting more
This might not last too long
So always take it
This might not last too long
So always take it
Reasons,reasons were here from the start
Its my instiction,its my instiction
Reasons, reasons are part of the art
Its my instiction,its my instiction
You cry,justify
But deep beneath the feelings lie
Photo,looking old
Memory makes the day feel cold
Theyve gone,sing your song
Walk the flow,ah,too slow
Post boom,second doom
Stealing cake to eat the moon
This might not last too long
So always take it
Reasons,reasons were here from the start
This might not last too long
So always take it
Reasons,reasons were here from the start
Its my instiction,its my instiction
Reasons, reasons are part of the art
Its my instiction,its my instiction
Stealing cake to eat the moon.

Im Afraid
Afraid of the dark
Afraid of the light
Dont walk in the park
Afraid of the night
Afraid to get stabbed
Or hit by a car
Afraid of the streets
Afraid to go far
Afraid of the sky
Dont like to be high
I dont want to fall
Afraid I might die
Afraid of my friends
Dont like to be seen
Afraid to be nice
Afraid to be mean
Afraid that the wind
Will knock over trees
Afraid of my dog
Afraid of his fleas
[chorus]
Peace of mind
Hard to keep
Hard to find
Look ahead
Look behind
Looking for
Peace of mind
Cant relax
Cant unwind
Deep inside
Secret mind
Oh no!
Afraid to be caught
Afraid to be free
Afraid to make love
Afraid of vd
Afraid of the rain
Dont like to get wet
Afraid to take drugs
They make me forget
Afraid that the air
Will make me get sick
Afraid that a girl
Will cut off my....oh!
Someone tell me how it happened
Why my head is so confused
Can it be my circuits finally blew a fuse
Can a human being really change into a humanoid
Or is my imagination paranoid
All I need is peace and quiet, maybe just a little time
Turn the channel, turn the channel piece of mind
[repeat chorus]
Afraid of success
Afraid to grow old
Afraid that my brain
Is covered with mold
Afraid that I might
Ce put on a shelf
But thats not the least, oh, oh!
Afraid of myself

Finally
So it's over now (finally)
I'm beneath
And I'm crawling out
On my knees
I can hear what you said
Echoing in my head
I'm losing...myself
Now I'm cold on the floor
And I don't care anymore
Cause its over...it's over
I can feel
Like it's real
Now I can finally feel
So I guess it's over now
And you broke me down somehow
Now I'm faltering
I can see - I can be
I can leave and shut you out
So I'm leaving now (somehow)
Underneath
As I slowly drown
Finally
I can hear what you said
Echoing in my head
I'm losing...myself
I'm shaking deep inside
I'm having trouble breathing
I need somewhere to hide
Away cause I am healing

Moonglow and Memories
I’m afraid I’m losing them
Things that slip
through fingers and mind
It slides from my grasp
Tho I squeeze til I gasp
I cannot contain Luna’s shine
Like the moon that I cup
In my hands
In the night
Like memories
That I just can’t quite
Remember just right
I’m afraid that I’m losing them
Both moon glow and memories
Tho’ I do try so hard
to clutch them so tight

Seize The Day
Hey oh well it's my turn now
You've just lost your precious spot somehow
Me I'll take it all away
No one ever dreamed you'd up and walk away
You'd love to watch me be the throwaway
Just when I can finally seize the day
Take your self and disappear
You are still no longer welcome here
Fear drives you to act this way
The sum of all you've done will be the debt that you pay
You'd love to watch me be the throwaway
Just when I can finally seize the day
With the fear of losing it to you
I'll keep it close and finally break on through
You'd love to watch me be the throwaway
Just when I can finally seize the day
With the fear of losing it to you
I'll keep it close and finally break on through
Thanks to you

Reasons I Cheat
A working day to long when everything goes wrong
And a boss who dont know Im alive
I once had a notion Id get that promotion,
But now I barley survive
A wife to demanding with no understanding
Of why I stay dead on my feet
A dimly lit tavern a willing young woman
Are some of the reasons I cheat
The hair that Im losing and a women whos choosing
To lay sound asleep by my side
The bills they are mounting thats when I start counting
On someone to help sooth my pride
A lady that knows me affection she shows me and a smile so easy and sweet
The dreams that Ive buried the load that Ive carried
Are some of the reasons I cheat
My children keep on growing me age keeps on showing
Like all of my old friends I meet
So Im getting older my lifes growing colder
Just some of the reasons I cheat
Yes Im getting older my lifes growing colder
Just some of the reasons I cheat
