This Fear Won't Control Me
This Fear Won't Control Me
I started out in pain
My skin washed by the rain
Lost my faith, traded God for work
Now the work, it never ends
And I've been losing all my friends
And the pain I started with still somewhere lurks
Now I've got to get myself back
To where I went astray
There's no point in regretting
But I do it anyway
This fear won't control me
This fear won't control me
This fear won't control me, control me today
Goddamn that broken spell
That's been making our lives hell
And poisoning the well of imagination
They want to rank our lives
Make us sharpen all our knives
We've gotta root out all the lies that built the nation
Now we've got to get ourselves back
To where we went astray
If you're ever frightened
All you've got to say is
This fear won't control me
This fear won't control me
This fear won't control me, control me today
