Waves Of Fear - Lou Reed

Waves of fear, attack in the night

Waves if revulsion, a sickening sight

My heart's nearly bursting, my chest's choking tight

Waves of fear, waves of fear

Waves of fear, squat on the floor

Looking for some pill, the liquor is gone

Blood trips from my nose, I can barely breathe

Waves of fear, I too scared to leave

Waves of fear, waves of fear, waves of fear, waves of fear,

I'm too afraid to use the phone

I'm too afraid to put the light on

I'm so afraid I've lost control

I'm suffocating without a word

Crazy with sweat, spittle on my jaw

What's that funny noise, what's that on the floor

Waves of fear, pulsing with death

I curse my tremors, I jump at my own step

I cringe at my terror, I hate my own smell

I know where I must be, I must be in hell

Waves of fear, waves of fear, waves of fear, waves of fear,
