Verse 1
You say I'm free but you mean
I'm so lonely
You say you feel great
But I'm not dreaming
Because those looks in your eyes
Tell me everything
I feel just like you
And you can be honest
You say you feel really good
Your mouth starts to tremble
I know I can help you
But you have to want it yourself
Let's do each other a favor now
That's all I'm asking
Put that fear away now, I already knew
It's my day today
Chorus 1
Give me your fear now
I'll give you hope in return
Give me the night now
I'll give it back tomorrow
As long as I don't lose you
I'll surely find the way with you
Verse 2
Look at me now
No, don't say anything
You can stay silent
It's still hard now but I know
That I can get you
And this never has to happen again
If you stay with me tonight
Because then you'll see
When you wake up later
That you'll laugh again
Chorus 2
Give me the feeling
That I belong again from now on
I'll come with you
No, I'm never letting you go again
Give me your fear now
I'll give you hope in return
Give me the night now
I'll give it back tomorrow
As long as I don't lose you
I'll surely find the way with you
Give me the feeling
That I belong again from now on
I'll come with you
No, I'm never letting you go again
Give me your fear now
I'll give you hope in return
Give me the night now
I'll give it back tomorrow
As long as I don't lose you
I'll surely find the way with you

SONG MEANING

Feeling lonely in a crowd? That is exactly the mood Guus Meeuwis taps into with “Geef Mij Je Angst” (Give Me Your Fear). The singer notices a friend pretending to be fine, yet their trembling voice and worried eyes reveal the truth. Instead of judging, he reaches out with a warm promise: hand me your fear, and I will trade it for hope. Throughout the song he reassures them that they do not have to face the night alone; by staying close, tomorrow’s daylight will feel lighter and brighter.

Ultimately, this track is a heartfelt invitation to drop the mask, accept help, and discover the strength that comes from genuine connection. Meeuwis reminds us that sharing vulnerability is not weakness but a shortcut to healing. Wrapped in an uplifting melody, his words deliver a simple yet powerful message: when fear is shared, hope multiplies.
