About…
This song aims to capture the loyal and dutiful qualities of Type Six with just a hint of fear and a dash of doubt on the side. It expresses the difficulty experienced when we see the world as a dangerous and hazardous place that cannot be trusted. This song highlights the defence mechanism of ‘projection’ – placing the blame for our internal sense of fear on the outside world as we try to avoid rejection. The chorus takes us to the relief experienced when we realise that we can carry on in life even in the absence of certainty. It points to courage and ultimately, faith, as gateways to presence.

Lyrics
Got worries on my mind
Everyday
Plannin’ for what could go wrong
In every way
Cos Doubt clouds my mind, ya know
With worst case scenarios
Don’t leave me to survive alone
Depend on me, you can rely
On what I say
I’ll be standing by
In every way
But doubt clouds my mind, ya know
With worst case scenarios
I have to be prepared…but
I’ll soldier on courageously
There’s no such thing as certainty
The road ahead’s becomin’ clear
Faith guides the way
Without fear
Will you find me warm
Or will you find me cold?
Depends on the day
If I have to decide
We’ll be here until we’re old
Whatever you say
‘Cos doubt clouds my mind, ya know
With worst case scenarios
Wish I could trust this world…but
Chorus
I may confuse you
Won’t be your fault, but I’ll blame you
So just hold steady and help me see
A positive reality
I’ll soldier on courageously
There’s no such thing as certainty
The road ahead’s becomin’ clear
Faith guides the way…
I’ll soldier on courageously
There’s no such thing as certainty
The road ahead’s becomin’ clear
Faith guides me home
Without fear
Without Fear!
