Text: Mercyful Fate. Dead Again. Fear.

In the mirror I have seen him
And he scares me
The creature behind the mask I wear
I know his name is fear

In the mirror he's looking back at me
I have to face him everyday
And I know him not so well
His name is fear

So deep within yet so far away
I wonder will he always stay
Stay so deep within, deep within my soul
And I know him not so well
His name is fear

The man in the mirror, he scares me
For I know him not so well
The creature behind the mask I wear
I know his name is fear

In the mirror it's not my eyes I see
But they are always there

I cannot let it show
No one must ever know
The horror that lies so deep within
Tucked away beneath my skin

And it scares me
Yes, it scares me

So deep within, yet so far away
I wonder will he always stay
Stay so deep within, deep within my soul
And I know him not so well
His name is fear

No man nor any book
Will ever teach me what I need to know
No man nor any book
Will ever teach me what I know before

Only the creature living inside of me
Could show me the meaning of life

I cannot let it show
No one must ever know
The horror that lives so deep within
Tucked away beneath my skin

And it scares me
Yes, it scares me
