Same Old Fears

SAME OLD FEARS

VERSE I
You say you want to get away
You need a change of scene
Maybe move to the island
Where it's tropical and green

So you maxed out all your credit cards
To find some piece of mind
But guess who will be waiting
When you finally arrive

CHORUS
You and all your problems
You thought you'd left behind
The same old fears have been trailing you all these years

VERSE II
Wrapped up in a particular notion
Of who you're supposed to be
Feeling life's frustrations
Always fail so easily

And where is it you're going to?
And what cost it will be worth?
Ya know everyday is another day
So treat it just like the first

CHORUS
You are not the same as
You were yesterday
But the same old fears have been trailing you all these years

***
VERSE III
All the forces that surround us
Will swallow us in the end
We all live in the same world
No matter how much we pretend

Freedom can only be achieved
In moments of vulnerability
So let it go let it flow
Let it go let it flow

And realize there's no room inside
To leave all of these fears inside
So let it go let it flow
Let it go let it flow

CHORUS
You and all your problems
You thought you'd left behind
The same old fears have been trailing you all these years

You and all your problems
You thought you'd left behind
The same old fears have been trailing you all these years

You and all your problems
You thought you'd left behind
The same old fears have been trailing you all these years

You and all your problems
You thought you'd left behind
The same old fears have been trailing you all these years
