lyrics

Is it the fear of the things that have made us?
The clay by which OUR GODS create us?
Or the spirit that often betrays us?
Throw it away

Is it the fear that someday things will change?
Sell my guitar just to spend one more day
With a world we so often forsake
Throw it away

I never thought I’d see the day
That you and I would behave
Like the angry grown-ups into which we’ve turned
You’re a wildfire and you burn, burn, burn

Is it the fear at the heart of survival?
The trembling hands that authored our bible?
Or the poison in the roots of our denial?
Throw it away

Is it the fear of the loss of control?
Or that someday you all will grow old?
Or that OUR GODS have the rights to our soul?
Throw it away
