We all have fears
But we do anything to hide them
We'll do anything to avoid people finding out
Just because you think your fears are silly
Others share them
You're not the only one
But everyone shares the same fear
No matter who you are
That fear
Is facing fear itself
When you're too scared to admit your fear
You bottle it up inside
And let it grow overtime
So those who can admit it
Some say are foolish
And should be embarrassed
That their fears are so stupid
But those that can admit it
They have more courage
Than those who keep it locked away
