Oh Fear, I'm gonna slam you shut without a bookmark
Oh Fear, you're just a coward hiding in the half dark
Hoping I don't see you for the lie you are
Pretending you are me, but you're an imposter
When I, when I snap, when I snap my fingers
When I, when I snap, when I snap my fingers
I'm gonna be everything that I wanted to be
and everything that I was meant to be
Oh Fear, nobody's asking you to take the stage now
Listen Fear, the duet's done, it's time to take your last bow
I'm giving back the excuses “I'm shy” and “I'm nervous”
I will not let you strip me of my purpose
Just walk down the steps and out the door, I suggest you go quiet
I'm telling everyone who you are tonight, think you'll wanna miss the riot
When I, when I snap, when I snap my fingers
When I, when I snap, when I snap my fingers
I'm gonna be everything that I wanted to be
and everything that I was meant to be
I know it's not as simple or quick
As two fingers compressed to a click
But now I've heard it and my mind's clicked into gear
I have the choice, do I want you here?
We all got something that no one else got
I won't pretend to be you when I'm not
It's time to fight, put down your weaponry
Cos Love is fear's worst enemy
