Living in Fear

We look through doorways, to see who enters,
We doubt our knowledge, that puts us at centre,
I'm telling myself that I'll never open out,
Keeping my thoughts locked away, I resumed the drought,

The drought is my confidence, the drought is the cause,
I'm warning you that my reasons aren't there to be ignored,
I have fought my battle, and lost yet again,
But with this defeat, there isn't an heir,

I know I haven't been perfect, I know I've been bad,
I hurt you dearly, leaving my mood: beyond sad,
I live in regret, not knowing who I'll lash out to in time,
But that's just me overthinking once again, who am I, to this hateful crime.
