Siouxsie & The Banshees - Fear (of The Unknown) lyrics

I get the feeling -- i'm not alone I get the feeling -- it's someone i don't know Do you ever have the strange sensation When you're standing mighty tall To jump from 17 floors and crash into freefall But then fear takes control -- fear of the unknown Imagine two complete strangers Who suspect they were meant to be Both in need of love and affection Yet their suspicions prevent something heavenly Fear takes control -- fear of the unknown Aware of what will hurt you You're prepared to remain this way So sad yet safe with your afflictions Afraid to start a brand new day We all get the strangest feeling When we're standing mighty tall To jump from 17 floors and crash into freefall But then fear carries all -- fear of the unknown Fear takes its toll -- fear of the unknown Aware of what will hurt you You're prepared to remain this way So sad yet safe with your afflictions Afraid to start a brand new day
