Mercyful Fate - Fear lyrics

In the mirror... I have seen HIM

And he scares me

The crature... behind the mask I wear

I know his name is FEAR

In the mirror... he's looking back at me

I have to face him every day

And I know him not so well, his name is FEAR

So deep within, yet so far away

I... wonder, will he always stay

Stay so deep within, deep within my soul

And I know him not so well, his name is FEAR

The man... in the mirror, he scares me

For I know him not so well

The creature... behind the mask I wear

I know his name is FEAR

In the mirror... it's not omy eyes I see

But they are always there

I cannot let it show, NO ONE must ever know

The horror that lies so deep within

Tucked away beneath my skin

And it scares me, yes it scares me

So deep within, yet so far away

I... wonder, will he always stay

Stay so deep within, deep within my soul

And I know him not so well, his name is FEAR

Solo: Wead

No man... nor any book, will ever teach me

What I need to know

No man... nor any book, will ever teach me

What I'm longing for

Only the creature... living inside of me

Could show me the meaning of life

I cannot let it show, NO ONE must ever know

The horror that lives so deep within

Tucked away beneath my skin

And it scares me, yes it scares me
