Fear of death is here
Salient in all we do
Enslaving our minds

Fear of life is here
Because in life there is death
Battering our minds

Fear is not our friend
For it keeps us from living
We shrink in terror

Fear is a dark foe
That reduces us to nil
We must overcome

When we overcome our fear
We can live free and then die.
