Originally recorded in 1984 as a b-side to the Sunspots single, the song was originally just called Land of Fear, but was given the extended title when Julian re-recorded it for his 20 Mothers album
When I walk
Through the land of fear
Beside you
Become over you
Walk with me
Through the land of fear
I don't look to my left
I don't look to my rear
‘Cause I'm, I’m not afraid anymore
Somehow I'm not afraid anymore
‘Cause when I walk
Through the land of fear
There's no on there
I make damn sure
I judge the stakes
Against myself
The count has grown
Up above the shelf
I’m, I'm not afraid anymore
Somehow I'm not afraid anymore
‘Cause when I walk
Through the land of fear
The crying and the glancing out
Abandon thee
Incorrigibly tamed
They'll never see
Beyond my gaze
In the land of fear
The land of fear
