To Kill Achilles - Venom

I'm not a strong man
Both in the physical sense and my mental health
See I struggle coping with a fear, a fear of death
I shake, my eyes well
I'm not scared of heaven, not scared of hell
I'm just terrified of not being here

Now I know this sounds messed up but there's times I feel like ending it all
Just to give myself a rest from being so stuck in my head
I'm so stuck in my head

What I wouldn't give to lay in my bed, and not just dream about my death

This fear is not irrational
You see when I was just a boy
I seen my father die in front of my eyes
And as I get older I'm starting to feel
Like if it happened to him it could happen to me

There's no day without the night
There's no dark without the light
There's no life without death, we all take one last breath
This feeble heart inside our chests will stop beating and put us to rest

There's no day without the night
There's no dark without the light
There's no life without death, we all take one last breath
This feeble heart inside our chests will stop beating and put us all to rest

So let me ask you what's worse
To live in fear from the bite of the snake, or to present your hand, watch its fangs pierce your skin, and know in that moment, that you'll never be scared again?

I guess I'll never be scared again
