All Falls Down

Anticipating, salivating, intoxicating How I've been waiting To gently soak in Your dream that's broken Caress my hands Around your throat When I choke the last gasp of air out of you I'll mesmerize you, hypnotize you Paralyze you, my snake eyes blind you My tenderest tickle, my gentlest prickle The back of your neck I stab icicles My sweetest grin will pull you in Behind that grin a razor teeth smile Under your bed Inside your head I am the monster in wait Walk, run I'm the fear you've become Pray, hope Before it's your Downfall, and all falls down I patronize you, victimize you My false pretenses endear me to you I'm psychopathic, psychosomatic Believe everything you've heard about me Ate you alive since you were a child That's when the monster first appeared to you So know my name What is my name? My name is fear and I'm you Walk, run I'm the fear you've become Pray, hope Before it's your Downfall, and all falls down With faith I crawl In sadness, I fear what I've become 'Cause after all I'm acting, pretend my smile on Before the fall The pain washes over Hold on, hold on Survive Survive This Walk, run Free the fear you've become Fight back Before it's your Downfall, and all falls down --- All Falls Down - Machine Head
