Persistance of Fear

Skar · Artificial Reality [2006]

The fears have come true

The dreams have become nightmares

I'm losing it all

More falls away as the days go by



Can I hold onto what I've got left for now

I don't think so



The hopes have become rust

The ideas have eroded to dust

There's no honesty or trust

Left in this one



Can I hold onto what I've got left for now

I don't think so



Rip it away from me

I know it's gonna happen anyway

Tear down my sanity

Because my grasp's slipping already



It's the nature of this world
