No Fear

Life is withering away
Like sundown in a hideaway
Every day, every moment I try to get 
Is but a step away from my true self

No begging on my knees
Like I did it before
No more tears
I’ve shed enough
Now I have my pride to go

You saw smoke in the mirrors
And a closed door
I am living in this cage for so damn long
Having no other place to go

Memories fade away
Seconds slip away
Year by year, day by day
Everything withers away
And I feel like I’m gone too
Through the lost day of youth

I have secrets to keep still
So none else knows
Deep inside hidden beneath
Behind all the closed doors
I keep my dreams within

As nothing matters, but the heart
Thrice broken and healed
Though not the next time
Another fall it won’t survive
Yet I have no fear
