Fearless

I smile and laugh with all my teeth

Because feigned happiness is toothless

Safe behind the motions of politeness

‘Cause my friends are uncomfy if I feel worthless

Or I say I’m drifting aimless

In the ocean known as Loveless

And they say that I should care less

But that only means I brush my hair less

And I really should be alone less

‘Cause isolation makes me hopeless

But the act of asking leaves me breathless

I know my anxiety is baseless

And the intrusive thoughts are pointless

But the spiraling is relentless

And leaves me dark and sleepless

So I hide that I am cheerless

Push down the fog that leave me brainless

Bury the shame that’s lurking shapeless

And convince myself that I’m not graceless

But I have a God that says I’m priceless

And that through Him I am blameless

So I will hold my hands up shameless

In a worlds that screams I’m senseless

And I’d do better to be faithless

I will cling to a King who’s deathless

And walk into a bright noon cloudless

Hide ‘neath His wings when I am helpless

Rest in Him when I am restless

And recall when the dark seems endless

That in His love he makes me fearless -

That He is greater than my grief
