The Greatest Fear


Slow down, sweet thing Time

This winter passed too quick

Please stop and hold the moment

Merciless heart tick.


Slow down, twenty-two

Freeze me in my youth

I wish sometimes I weren't alive

I just can't bear the truth.


I can't listen to my heartbeat

I can't bear to feel my breath

What's the point of living

When living leads to death?


Death is not my greatest fear

My greatest fear is living

For I'm a helpless victim

Of the time that life is giving.


I'm too afraid of living

Although I must pretend

I'm too afraid of loving

Can't face the coming end.
