Fear

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why does everything I fear come along.
And everyone I need feels too far.
Time keeps on changing me into someone I don’t want to be
Why does everything I fear come along
I don't know if there's a master plan
Cause all the stories told are secondhand
Will we ever find the promise land
Or is the desert really all there is
Thought when I grew up that I ought to know
Instead I'm spinning out of my control
It's taken everything to keep a hold but
I'll just keep fighting till I'm getting old
Why does everything I fear come along
And everyone I need feels too far
Time keeps on changing me into someone I don’t want to be
Why does everything I fear come along
Gave up everything to chase a dream
It didn't turn out how I thought it'd be
I guess I probably should've done the math
Is it to late to carve a different path
Cause now I'm caught up in anxiety
A couple months that I've been loosing sleep
It's taking everything to let it be but
It's like a movie playing on repeat
Why does everything I fear come along.
And everyone I need feels too far.
Time keeps on changing me into someone I don’t want to be,
Why does everything I fear come along
Don't be scared in the moment
When the voices are calling
You'll be there when the morning comes
Keep your head, don't doubt it




If they scream, you shout it
I'll be there when the morning comes

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to See's song Fear depict the overwhelming feeling of anxiety and the fear of the unknown. The singer expresses their frustration at how everything they fear seems to come their way and everything they need always feels just out of reach. The passage of time is an important theme in the song, as it speaks to the idea that change is inevitable and often difficult to accept. The lyrics also touch on the idea of a master plan or destiny, or lack thereof, and the feeling of being lost and out of control.


The repetition of the line "why does everything I fear come along" emphasizes the singer's sense of helplessness and their inability to escape the anxiety and fear that plagues them. The verse about chasing a dream only to realize it wasn't what they thought it would be speaks to the expectation versus reality dilemma that many people face. The singer is left wondering if it's too late to change their path and to find a different way forward, but they remain stuck in their anxiety and fears.


The chorus speaks to the universality of these feelings, that everyone experiences moments of fear and uncertainty in their lives, and that time changes us all, often into people we don't want to be. The final lines of the song offer a glimmer of hope, that despite the struggles and challenges we all face, the morning will come and we can face whatever comes our way.
