Whatever I Fear

Toad The Wet Sprocket

Music and lyrics by Glen Philips



there's almost nothing left

you eat my kind for breakfast

what did i expect?

to come here and find anyone?

find open arms to greet me

and friends to feed me

i sicken myself so much

and you eat my kind for breakfast

you eat my kind



whatever i fear the most is whatever i see before me

whenever i let my guard down, whatever i was ignoring

whatever i fear the most is whatever i see before me

whatever i have been given, whatever i have been



seeing myself this way

i am a monster i believe

and seeing is believing

is there no doubt left

when i poison myself

and poison leaves no appetite

i sicken myself so much

i sicken myself so



whatever i fear the most is whatever i see before me

whenever i let my guard down, whatever i was ignoring

whatever i fear the most is whatever i see before me

whatever i have been given, whatever i have been



did we expect these things to change

by waking up and suddenly there they are

and all i need's a starting place

and nothing ever seemed so hard...



whatever i fear the most is whatever i see before me

whenever i let my guard down, whatever i was ignoring

whatever i fear the most is whatever i see before me

whatever i have been given, whatever i have been
