Peter Gabriel - Darkness Lyrics
Im scared of swimming in the seaDark shapes moving under meEvery fear I swallow makes me smallInconsequential things occurAlarms are triggeredMemories stirIts not the way it has to beIm afraid of what I do not knowI hate being underminedIm afraid I can be devil manAnd Im scared to be divineDont mess with me my fuse is shortBeneath this skin these fragments caughtWhen I allow it to beTheres no control over meI have my fearsBut they do not have meWalking through the undergrowth, to the house in the woodsThe deeper I go, the darker it getsI peer through the windowKnock at the doorAnd the monster I wasSo afraid ofLies curled up on the floorIs curled up on the floor just like a baby boyI cry until I laughIm afraid of being motheredWith my balls shut in the penIm afraid of loving womenAnd Im scared of loving menFlashbacks coming in every nightDont tell me everythings alrightWhen I allow it to beIt has no control over meI own my fearSo it doesnt own meWalking through the undergrowth, to the house in the woodsThe deeper I go, the darker it getsI peer through the windowKnock at the doorAnd the monster I wasSo afraid ofLies curled up on the floorIs curled up on the floor just like a baby boyI cry until I laugh
