[Eb] [E]
[Eb] [E]
[Eb] [E] I'm scared of swimming in the sea [Eb] With dog shapes moving under me
[Bb] And every fear I swallow [Eb]
Makes me small
[Bb] Inconsequential things occur [Eb] Alarms are triggered, memories stir
[E] [Gb] It's not the way it has [Abm] to be
[E] I'm afraid of what I do not know [Eb] I hate being on the mind
I'm [E] afraid I can't be devil man [Eb] I'm scared to be divine
[E] Don't mess with me, my fuse is short [Eb] The needle is skinned, the spider's caught
[B] [Gb] When I allow it [Abm] to be [B] There's no [Gb] control [Abm] over me
[E] [Gb] I have my [Abm] fears But [E] [Gb] they do not [Abm] have me

[Bb] I'm afraid of loving women [Eb] I'm scared of loving men
[E] Flashbacks coming in every night [Eb] Don't tell me everything's alright
[Abm] [Gb] When I allow it [Abm] to be [B] There's no control [Abm] over me
[B] I have [Gb] my [B] fears So [Gb] it doesn't [Abm] harm me
