Cowards

They’re weak and afraid, submissive and tame
Alone in their beds, they hide from their heads
They weep and they pray, and keep you away
Afraid to see what’s on the other side of unknown

You’re crawling out of your skin
Afraid of failure
Afraid of rejection
Afraid of being different
Afraid that you don’t fit in anywhere
Afraid to make the first move
Afraid to be the last
Afraid of looking stupid
Afraid of how they’ll judge you
For the things that you say,
The role that you play
The ones who have been
In the skin that you’re in
The sheep can not stray, too weak
And afraid to see what happens on the other side of unknown

They’re weak and afraid, they go where they’re led
They’re weak and afraid, enslaved in their heads
They’re weak and afraid, they hide in the phone
They’re weak and afraid, and lost all alone

They’re weak and afraid, complacent with life
Too weak and afraid to open their eyes
They’re weak, and afraid to stand on their own
And see what happens on the other side of unknown
