Fear

by Jennifer   Nov 18, 2005


She looks into the shadows
Hoping he isn't there
Standing there she watches
Standing there she stares

Slowly he comes toward her
An evil look on his face
Hes determined to put her down
Determined to put her in her place

Fear is what she feels
Fear is what she knows
Fear is what he means
Fear is what he sows

As his hand is raised
She turns to run
But as it comes down
She knows she will never see the sun

Fear is what she feels
Fear is what she knows
Fear is what he means
Fear is what he sows

Running she goes
Over to the cot
Protecting the child
The only one shes got

She knows she will die
There is no choice
Because with him
She has no voice

Fear is what she feels
Fear is what she knows
Fear is what he means
Fear is what he sows

As she fall to the floor
He looks at the gun
The one that ended her life
The one that will end her sons

Fear is what she did feel
Fear is what she did know
Fear is what he did mean
Fear is what he did sow

But now the roles are reversed

Fear is what he feels
Fear is what he knows
Fear is what they mean
Fear is what they sow

The cycle of life is complete
For what he did
Will forever haunt him
For he killed his own kid
