[Verse 1]
Vices that I mix
No, they can't fix the type of
silence that this is
But I can't take another lifeless,
empty kiss
Still, I keep pushing back the time
to call it quits
[Pre-Chorus]
When I hold you, I get the feeling
I don't know you
I get the feeling it's not love that
keeps us holding on
It's not love that keeps us
holding on (Ah)
[Chorus]
It's the fear of, it's the fear of
being alone
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
It's the fear of, it's the fear of
being alone
Got me never letting go (Ah)
[Post-Chorus]
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
It's the fear of being alone
[Verse 2]
Easy as it is
The risk of wasted time is
keeping me convinced
I shouldn't go ahead
and give you up like this
And I really, really wish
[Pre-Chorus]
I didn't have to make excuses
'Cause I'm scared to find out
what the truth is
'Cause I'm scared to find out
it's not love that keeps us holding on
It's not love that keeps us holding on (Ah)
[Chorus]
It's the fear of, it's the fear of
being alone
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
It's the fear of, it's the fear of
being alone
Got me never letting go (Ah)
[Post-Chorus]
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
It's the fear of being alone (Ah)
[Chorus]
It's the fear of, it's the fear of
being alone
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
It's the fear of, it's the fear of
being alone
Got me never letting go (Ah)
