Lyrics for The Fear

My my, cold hearted child, tell me how you feel Just a blade in the grass, spoke unto the wheel My my, cold hearted child, tell me where it's all gone The luster of your bones, those arms that held you strong I been worryin' that my time is a little unclear I been worryin' that I'm losing the ones I hold dear I been worryin' that we all live our lives in the confines of fear My my, cold hearted child, tell me how you feel Just a grain in the morning air, dark shadow on the hill My my, cold hearted child, tell me where it all falls All this apathy you feel will make a fool of us all I been worryin' that my time is a little unclear I been worryin' that I'm losing the ones I hold dear I been worryin' that we all live our lives in the confines of fear Oh I will become what I deserve Oh I will become what I deserve Oh I will become what I deserve Oh I will become what I deserve (I've been worryin', I've been worryin') Oh I will become what I deserve (I've been worryin', my time is a little unclear) Oh I will become what I deserve I been worryin', I been worryin' that my time is a little unclear I been worryin', I been worryin that I'm losing the one's I hold dear I been worryin' I been worryin' that we all All live our lives in the confines of fear
