An ultra-wide cinematic banner featuring a lone person partially enveloped by shadowy, ethereal mist and dark vines, symbolizing the paralyzing stronghold of fear. They are gazing up toward a faint, warm beam of light breaking through the dim environment, representing a plea for help.


You don't even know me.
Why do you act like you do?
You really wouldn't understand,
All of the things i've been through.

I know it's not nearly as much,
As others have and will face.
But it's enough to make me,
Have this fear that I embrace.

It has such a stronghold,
That I can't just let go.
Wrapping itself around me,
When i'll be free I don't know.

I'm so scared of getting close,
To anyone who is around.
God, can you please help me,
To let my openness abound.
