In The Shadows Of Your mind
With the sense of failure haunting and igniting people’s fears,
as they’re bowed beneath the weight of expectation by their peers
Making stress an enemy - the latest scourge to taunt mankind,
and that enemy is lurking in the shadows of your mind.
We have set the bar much higher in a race without a cause,
as we strive to one day wallow in some hollow fake applause.
And the danger signs are hidden, and ambition is so blind,
So, remember what is waiting in the shadows of your mind.
And there’s no one who’s immune now be you humble or of wealth,
this insidious disease is stalking everyone by stealth.
And its silent and its deadly to the victims it can find,
while it’s hiding out of sight there in the shadows of your mind.
