Dystopian Futures - Fear (Cassingle Version) Lyrics

I can't catch my breath, I need to take a breath!
I need to take a breath
Before the next wave of fear inducing news comes over the airways
Run! Tell! Hide!
Hurricanes, earthquakes, Brexit talks on immigration
Terror attacks around the globe
News of economic downturn
Legislating right-wing policy
Spirit of Thatcher on the rise
They want you, crippled by fear
Fear in our ears, fear in our eyes
Fear in our hearts, fear in our minds
Then we channel our fear into our hands
And take it out on our fellow man
Fear in our ears, fear in our eyes
Fear in our hearts, fear in our minds
Then we channel our fear into our hands
And take it out on our fellow man
Do not fear, for I have redeemed you
I have summoned you by name
You are mine!
When you pass through the waters
I will be with you
When you pass through the rivers
They won't surround you
When you go through the fire, you won't be burned
The flames will not set you ablaze
Do not fear, for I have redeemed you
I have called you by name
You are mine, You are mine
Do not fear! You are mine!
I stand here in stunned silence
Fear freezes the heart, terror tortures the mind
Aghast and guilt ridden at the lack of good in me
Xenophobia, Islamophobia
Fearing others, we isolate ourselves
Autophobia, monophobia
We cringe into ourselves
To live in fear is to be a slave
They want you scared, they want you silent
Frightened people make foolish decisions
They're counting on it
Fear in our ears, fear in our eyes
Fear in our hearts, fear in our minds
So we child out fear into our hearts
And take in our buffalo mind
Fear in our ears, fear in our eyes
Fear in our hearts, fear in our minds
Then we channel our fear into our hands
And take in out on our fellow man
To live in fear is to be a slave!
(Perfect love casts out all fear)
To live in fear is to be a slave!
(Perfect love casts out all fear)
To live in fear is to be a slave!
(Perfect love casts out all fear)
To live in fear is to be a slave!
(Perfect love casts out all fear)
To live in fear is to be a slave!
