Letra da Música Fear Yourself de Emery

Just outside the black lines
my father drew the face of a girl
And I didn't hear the words
that the old man said
that crushed the whole world
My mother's eyes caught mine
as she took the pen from my hand
The brothers and the sisters
just whispering "Hallelujah! Amen! "

Fear yourself is all I heard
Horror-struck from the Holy Word
There's only so many times
you can ask for forgiveness
And as the saints came down to receive
The spirit moved and they earned their reprieve
But outside those walls they mauled the witness
And we got back to business

The blur of living two lives
sometimes you have to compromise
That's what you tell yourself?
You become the aesthetic
set-apart and prophetic
But for how long? It won't work!
But hide away the wrong things
that somehow you just can't beat
And it gets worse
Everything is hidden
and you can't remember why you believed
every word

Fear yourself is all I heard
Horror-struck from the Holy Word
There's only so many times
you can ask for forgiveness
And as the saints came down to receive
The spirit moved
and they earned their reprieve
But outside those walls
they mauled the witness
And we got back to business
