Prisoner of Doubt

Shadows creep as the phone starts to ring,
Trapped in my mind, a prisoner of doubt.
The world's against me, or so it seems.

Heart pounds fast, I can't do this thing.
Frozen in fear, I long to break out,
Shadows creep as the phone starts to ring.

New day dawns, but no peace does it bring.
Can't find the key, can't find my way out,
The world's against me, or so it seems.

In my car-fortress, I sit lingering,
To face the world, I hesitate about.
Shadows creep as the phone starts to ring.

Years have passed, no job to my name clings,
In conversations, I'm drowning in doubt.
The world's against me, or so it seems.

But deep inside, a strength's gathering,
A whisper grows, too soft to shout.
Shadows creep as the phone starts to ring,
The world's against me, but I'll break free, it seems.
