Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Vices that I mix
No, they can't fix the type of silence that this is
But Ican'ttake another lifeless,empty kiss
Still, I keep pushing backthe time to call it quits

[Pre-Chorus]
When I hold you, I get the feeling I don't know you
I get the feeling it's not love that keeps us holding on
It's not love that keeps us holding on (Ah)

[Chorus]
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
Got me never letting go (Ah)

[Post-Chorus]
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
It's the fear of being alone

[Verse 2]
Easy as it is
The risk of wasted time is keeping me convinced
I shouldn't go ahead and give you up like this
And I really, really wish

[Pre-Chorus]
I didn't have to make excuses
'Cause I'm scared to find out what the truth is
'Cause I'm scared to find out it's not love that keeps us holding on
It's not love that keeps us holding on (Ah)

[Chorus]
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
Got me never letting go (Ah)

[Post-Chorus]
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
(Fear of, fear of being alone)
It's the fear of being alone (Ah)

[Chorus]
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
Got me staying when I know (Ah)
It's the fear of, it's the fear of being alone
Got me never letting go (Ah)
