Fear of not remembering how to save a life
And the fright that could drive me to walk off the stage
I fear failure at the time when it's most vital I succeed

I dread the loss of music and laughter and dance
The fear that no one will want to sing, laugh, play a tune
I fear the death of all that is beautiful

What happens when the dark swallows the light?
A candle can light a dark room
But what happens if it is snuffed out?

What will this world be when

There's anger
And never happiness

War
And never peace

Screams
And never laughter

Rivalry
And never friendship

Hate
And no love

I fear a world out of control
