FEAR OF ASKING VAINLY IN HIS NAME
FEAR OF DYING LONELY WITH MY PAIN

RAGING IN MY VEINS

ONE OF HUMAN FORM
YIELDS NO SAD EMOTION

IT'S COMING IN A DREAM
ONE I'VE HAD BEFORE
WRAPS ME IN WHITE LINEN
SLOWLY SHUTS THE DOOR

FEAR OF GOD IN HEAVEN BURNS WITHIN
FEAR OF ASKING VAINLY TO FORGIVE
FEAR OF DYING VAINLY WITH MY SINS
FEAR OF CRUCIFIXION ONCE AGAIN
