Fear Is the Teacher
Song by Ben Phantom
Many unseen forces
Move my blood and shake my soul
And as I stumble through this inner land
I wonder if I’ll make it home
I swear I’m bound to turn the corner
Around which I have never seen
Beyond the doors of past imagining
The deepest place I’ve ever been
Fear is the teacher
If I have the guts to dive
Into the blackest chambers
Of my lonely heart and mind
Forgot to remember to forget
The escape that keeps me from myself
We all face death and God alone
When we die there’s no one else
Though I don’t like what I see
I can’t turn my back and run
I must wake up from this hurt
And do what I know must be done
Move my blood and shake my soul
And as I stumble through this inner land
I wonder if I’ll make it home
I swear I’m bound to turn the corner
Around which I have never seen
Beyond the doors of past imagining
The deepest place I’ve ever been
Fear is the teacher
If I have the guts to dive
Into the blackest chambers
Of my lonely heart and mind
Forgot to remember to forget
The escape that keeps me from myself
We all face death and God alone
When we die there’s no one else
Though I don’t like what I see
I can’t turn my back and run
I must wake up from this hurt
And do what I know must be done
