Patrick’s Pic and Word Challenge 250: Fear
I thought I would do something different for this challenge as John Cale’s song says a lot about fear. This is also one of my favourite songs. I hope you enjoy…….
Standing waiting for a man to show
Wide eyed one eye fixed on the door
This waiting’s killing me, it’s wearing me down
Day in day out, my feet are burning holes in the ground
Darkness warmer than a bedroom floor
Want someone to hold me close forever more
I’m a sleeping dog, but you can’t tell
When I’m on the prowl you’d better run like hell
You know it makes sense, don’t even think about it
Life and death are just things you do when you’re bored
Say fear’s a man’s best friend
You add it up it brings you down
Home is living like a man on the run
Trails leading nowhere, where to my son?
We’re already dead, just not yet in the ground
Take my helping hand I’ll show you around
You know it makes sense, don’t even think about it
Life and death are just things you do when you’re bored
Say fear’s a man’s best friend
You add it up it brings you down
A solemn start to the day, but I do like the photo you’ve created, in a spooky way 🙂 🙂

Quite Jo 😉 it is the fear of death that drives us all whether it is unconscious or not. We set the alarm or open curtains to let in the morning sun not knowing whether we will wake in the morning but still hope we will I guess 🙂 🙂
