[Verse 1]
I've walked the halls of madness, I've heard the jailer's laugh
I've yet to sing the funeral dirge, the only option left
Risen from an inferno of hopelessness and shame
Walked the tightrope out of it, then shouldered all the blame
But make no mistake, I know it's always there
It's always there
The scent of doom riding neglect, it's hanging in the air

[Chorus]
The only thing to fear rеmains inside unseen
Never disappеars, stand guard eternally
The only thing I fear lives on inside of me
Whispers in my ear, to the grave eternally

[Verse 2]
The broken record of my life skips bodies of my friends
So many walked that path with me, it took them to their end
Resting on rusty laurels, it's sweating while you sleep
It's doing push-ups in the dark with a knife between its teeth
So lest you forget, it never fades away
Won't fade away
Waiting for you to slip and put you in the grave

[Chorus]
The only thing to fear remains inside unseen
Never disappears, stand guard eternally
The only thing I fear lives on inside of me
Whispers in my ear, to the grave eternally
[Bridge]
It's always there
You best beware
Risen from an inferno but waiting in the deep
It's always there!

[Outro]
The only thing to fear never disappears
The only thing I fear whispers in my ear
I'll take it to the grave with me
