Fear inside our bones

Why do we worry?
Why do we doubt?
Why do we wonder?
When our stories don’t play out
Why are we hoping?
This too shall pass
Why are we waiting
For our train to come at last?
This is my best and my worst guess

We were made with pain inside of us
With the choice to feel just enough
Or grit our teeth and take the whole thing down
We were made with fear inside our bones
The kind that makes you feel alone
So hold on
Just breathe
And figure out
We are not alone
This makes us feel alive

Why do we wonder far into lies?
Why do we feel our hope won’t arise?
This is my best and my worst guess

We were made with pain inside of us
With the choice to feel just enough
Or grit our teeth and take the whole thing down
We were made with fear inside our bones
The kind that makes you feel alone
So hold on
Just breathe
And figure out
We are not alone
This makes us feel alive

Don’t look to me for hope
I’m lost, I’m just like you
Don’t look to me for freedom
There is a real way out
There is a real way out

We were made with pain inside of us
With the choice to just feel enough
Or grit our teeth and take the whole thing down
We were made with fear inside our bones
The kind that makes you feel alone
So hold on
Just breathe
And figure out

We were made with pain inside of us
With the choice to feel just enough
Or grit our teeth and take the whole thing down
We were made with fear inside our bones
The kind that makes you feel alone
So hold on
Just breathe
And figure out

We are not alone
This makes us feel alive
We are not alone
This makes us feel alive
We are not alone
This makes us feel alive
We are not alone
This makes us feel
