Survival Of The Fittest

Have you ever felt so scared of something that you can’t control?

Have you ever felt so scared of something you can?

What if that thing was yourself?

Would you put it down like anything else you’re afraid of?

Sure, the jokes used to be funny

When you didn’t believe they could ever be true

But then the possibility grew

And you slowly started to hate the cracks and the laughs

People will always tell you you can choose your path

That you can make yourself do whatever you like

I try to believe that, I do

But sometimes the fear overcomes the faith

But you’d never let anyone know your fears

Because they’d just label you as crazy

And you know you are a threat to people around you

But survival is about being the last man alive

And damn them if they think you’re going down first.
