the only thing i fear

Singer:joshua burnside

oh

when i was younger

and my parents were out working

hear voices in the attic

faces in the tv static

tigers in the garden

ghosts under the stairs and

under my bed

behind the curtain

always feel a presence lurking

now that i am older

the only thing i fear is myself

yeah

the voices in the attic were mine

well

i don't know what i did last night

i don't know what i said

to make you run a mile from me

there's thunder in my head

oh

when the day is dying

i take my potion

and float above that endless ocean

but careful friend

this useful tonic

will boil the blood inside your stomach

and the only thing i fear is myself

yeah

the voices in the attic were mine

yeah

the only thing i fear is myself

well

i just can't find

peace in my soul

no

i just can't find it

well

this persistent illusion

that everything is moving

forward as the weather vane

it spins

spins

spins

and the only thing i fear is myself

yeah

the voices in the attic were mine

yeah

the only thing i fear is myself
