Fear
Fear
Breathing down the necks of men
Holding them captive in the cage of monotony
Never freeing
Until one learns to release the chains that bind them
Fear
Trapping those without courage
Safe Jobs
Safe Lives
Never taking a risk
Until one flees the safety of the known and learns to truly live
Fear
Paralysing
Crippling
Controlling your every action
Walk the line without a fear of falling
