when all confidence has left you,
and you feel bereft of love,
forsaken by those who claimed they cared,
that's when i'll fit you like a glove.
i'll wait behind your neediness,
and use arrogance, he's my friend,
i'll have you projecting all of me
onto children, women, and men.
that's when i do my finest work,
and all of me i'll bring,
when others up and leave you,
i'll infect you, and do my thing.
my presence will be cunning,
my manipulation sly,
i'll have you wrapped around me,
you won't even ask yourself why.
the more of you i can consume,
the larger we become,
to contaminate all is what i want,
'cause YOUR pain, to me, is FUN!
a fiendish scowling wimp, you see,
a psychopath, my dear,
enjoying all your suffering,
your kidnapper...i'm fear.

fear is the king
of a coward's delight,
fear rules illusions
that cloud all fools' sight,
fear wants compliance
adoration and praise,
fear becomes arrogance
when you challenge his gaze,
turning the tables around
can be bliss,
when I make friends with fear
his intentions I twist,
fear uses everyone
and makes them his slaves,
fear turns the souls
of some dead in their graves,
fear teases weaknesses
of youth and of old,
fear changes hearts of warmth
into stone cold,
fear is the god
that brings glory to killing,
fear is the god
that makes the spineless willing,
motivation of many is controlled by fear,
due to principles twisted,
and virtues unclear,
many will use fear,
unwilling to see,
their fears are controlling them
clear as can be,
if ever you see one who
worries too much,
believe it is fear that is
gaining their trust,
fear is a mirror
when we've lost our way,
that tells us "forget love, honey...
I'm your hero...please stay?"
misguided people fall into fear's rut,
they slip and fall in,
losing touch with their gut,
banish your worries
and live in the now,
To strongarm your fears,
honeybun, this is how!!

Oh, my God -
how can we so disrespect you?
how can we take in vain the Name
that is True Love, and the Name
of the One who gives us charity, hope
and a impossible faith in this world of doubt?
Oh, you who is my God -
how can we slander you who loved us?
how can we take so slightly the very Name of Him
who is the great "I AM," the wise Judge, the all-sufficient Yahweh
of the most ancient of days -
for you have always been, and your heavenly eyes
seen everything that I have not.
So how dare we slander you
with our illiterate lips?
Oh, wonderful God who I seek to love! -
let not my mouth declare you to be
in any way less than you are;
let not my mind fail to comprehend
the things you teach me;
show me the mysteries you have given us,
only show me what I possibly could ever know,
and keep me forever and always from so wandering from you -
never let me take your Name in vain.
