looking forward down the path
i see my own demise
it scares me to death
i fall short of breath
can hardly believe my eyes
before my barren eyes

but i hold it inside
cuz i fear for my life every day

walking forward
moving slowly
trying to find my way back to you
walking forward
going nowhere
never knowing what to do

while the world just slips away
and i'm thrown into the fray

looking over my shoulder last nite
the shadows whiz by my head
i fall out of step
i'm losing my grip
my body sinks down like lead
my fright turns into dread
