Fear - Mercyful Fate

Fear Lyrics

In the mirror I have seen him
And he scares me
The creature behind the mask I wear
I know his name is fearIn the mirror he's looking back at me
I have to face him everyday
And I know him not so well
His name is fearSo deep within yet so far away
I wonder will he always stay
Stay so deep within, deep within my soul
And I know him not so well
His name is fearThe man in the mirror, he scares me
For I know him not so well
The creature behind the mask I wear
I know his name is fearIn the mirror it's not my eyes I see
But they are always thereI cannot let it show
No one must ever know
The horror that lies so deep within
Tucked away beneath my skinAnd it scares me

Yes, it scares meSo deep within, yet so far away
I wonder will he always stay
Stay so deep within, deep within my soul
And I know him not so well
His name is fearNo man nor any book
Will ever teach me what I need to know
No man nor any book
Will ever teach me what I know beforeOnly the creature living inside of me
Could show me the meaning of lifeI cannot let it show
No one must ever know
The horror that lives so deep within
Tucked away beneath my skinAnd it scares me
Yes, it scares me
