nothing to fear

it's an early morning and the world is asleep,
i know for one it's been a busy week
and though i feel sleepy there's an energy stirring,
surging through my veins, a low threshold for pain.
i'm dreaming one of those dreams where i know that i'm dreaming
and i feel though i've been here before,
prognosis, foresee, it's visionary imaging,
yeah i've definitely been here before.

we know you can't be afraid of what you can't see
so you cannot fear the future,
walking right now no need to fear what's around the corner.
if the world's oppressive and you fear it's short
just take a deeper breath
because time ain't about length,
life's about depth.

what is it, five in the morning, the fuck am i awake now,
i ain't sleeping again because
i'm in one of those funny moods again
but the sky's that darkened pale blue of starting/finishing day
but today it's starting so i think i'll use the blue.
i'm controlling today so i thought i'd have an adventure,
i think i wandered too far today
where the pavement no longer paves my way,
rescue equidistant, equally far.

i'm sitting naked, shitfaced, freezing cold,
starving hungry and my skin feels old,
got to go and find some food for my brain,
get the hell out of the pouring rain.
i feel my pain writing the news,
have to stop myself from getting abused,
it's kind of easy if i want to get wise
just tilt my head and open my eyes.
