Lived In Fear lyrics

They fought frantic in fear

Afraid to be ignorant

Afraid to be wrong

Such a high hurdle to have

No opportunity for change

The door shut tight

To live life on a blade's edge

Keen to cut or topple down

Wounds weep, unhealing

A barred quilded dominion

The bars that are secure

Safe from the world

Lived in fear and shadows

Always on alert boisterously

Diversionary tactics enacted

Retaining always the status quo

Not a very accomplished trade

For a life lived in fear
