I see you looking over your shoulder 
Tell me who do you think`s out there 
You`re reaching for your four leaf clover 
But baby there ain`t no luck down there 
I swear that there`s no heart in this city 
It`s here the slogan reads 
"Do your time" everybody`s doing 
their sentence 
It`s just there ain`t nobody here 
Who knows just what`s the crime 
I watched my father live a lie here 
I`d rather die than fade away 
I read the rules 
And yeah I know them 
Still you ain`t ever gonna 
Make me play the game of 
Fear 
Fear 
Fear 
Fear 

Running with the rats 
Through the city 
Makes you feel like you`re 
A partner in crime 
Girl once you won`t stop to watch 
That little girl did 

Hey baby won`t you stop and hear me 
Just being here we`re 
breathing heart attacks 
We can run and chase 
The setting sun we can run 
And we won`t ever look back 

Take my hand I know we`ll make it 
I`ll let nothing slow us down 
I know you want to curse 
This place but there`s only 
One thing that`s stopping us now 

Fear fear fear 
Of a new thing 
Fear fear fear 
Of the brass ring 

You ain`t one for taking chances 
You work and live and breathe that 9 to 5 
Still that`s what you call living 
That`s surviving to me 

And surviving is living to die in 
Fear
