Fear & Love

Looking into a life created
 A simple thing, yet so complicated
 One step forward, two step back
 Mouse on a wheel in a big mouse trap
 The pitter patter of repeated patterns
 Positive, yet you're so uncertain
 A line is drawn, a line is crossed
 Slipping up on the under frost
 The balance of fear and love
 Keeps a good man in line
 The skin gets thicker, seizes up
 Glimpsing his years in an empty cup
 The balance of fear and love
 Makes a good girl in time
 Shaping the world with a wilted wand
 Awaiting the day when the wind may take her
 Off her feet
 Everyone wants someone to follow
 To turn another grey day to yellow
 If trust breaks like a lightening bolt
 It takes a test to be fixing faults
 I've heard words fly on electric currents
 A look in the eye like an unborn torrent
 Does it take a trophy to turn a page
 And pass through life as a jilted sage
 The balance of fear and love
 Keeps a good man in line
 The skin gets thicker, seizes up
 Glimpsing his years in an empty cup
 The balance of fear and love
 Makes a good girl in time
 Shaping the world with a wilted wand
 Awaiting the day when the wind may take her
 Off her feet
 (Oh, Let it rain in hell, let it rain in hell)
