Fear, Fear, Fear
Walking, walking, walking
 You’re stranded
 Wondering how long
 You’ll roam the 
 Deserted land
 
 
 Walking, walking, walking
 You turn and look
 Both up and down
 The gray road
 Noticing nothing
 
 
 Walking, walking, walking
 You hear a noise 
 And look behind.
 A car! A car!
 Your head shouts
 
 
 Stopping, stopping, stopping
 You slow to a stop
 And as the car grows close
 You notice the rust
 And the blackened windows
 
 
 Thinking, thinking, thinking
 You begin to wonder
 Just who it is
 Behind that wheel
 
 
 Thinking, thinking, thinking
 Your fear increases
 Your heart races
 And you ask yourself
 Just why did you,
 Stop walking?
 
 
 Walking, walking, walking
 You push yourself
 Forward
 Putting as much distance
 Between you and him
 
 
 Closer, closer, closer
 The car draws nearer
 You wonder just why,
 Your car had to die,
 Out here,
 With no help?
 
 
 Trotting, trotting, trotting
 You push your legs
 Just a little faster,
 Scenarios reach you
 From the back of your
 Mind
 
 
 Running, running, running
 The pavement flies
 Beneath your feet
 But the car catches you
 
 
 And just when you think
 Your little life 
 Is coming to a horrific
 End,
 You notice
 The car is…
 
 
 Passing, passing, passing.
