Fear & Cowardice

[Verse 1]
Held out for the one that stung
Branded and sticking around
But I never tried to stay among
With some who like playin’ the clown

[Pre-Chorus]
As you swallow ‘til your belly’s round
You forget to chew, yeah
It’s a taste so wrong, you play along
And you forget to choose, yeah

[Chorus]
So what are you running from?
You’re not getting away
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and they made it
So what do you tell yourself?
It’s hard to explain
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and it’s mayday

[Verse 2]
Oh, wild man spun some words that stuck
You're branded and sticking around
At the altar of the mighty book
You wonder what’s keeping you down

[Pre-Chorus]
As you swallow ‘til your belly’s round
You forget to chеw, yeah
And it feels so wrong, you play along
You know you get to choose, yеah

[Chorus]
So what are you running from?
You’re not getting away
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and they made it
So what do you tell yourself?
It’s hard to explain
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and it’s mayday

[Chorus]
So what are you running from?
(So what are you running from?)
You’re not getting away
(You’re not getting away)
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and they made it
So what do you tell yourself?
(So what do you tell yourself?)
That you don’t understand?
(You don’t understand)
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and it’s mayday

[Chorus]
So what are you running from?
You’re not getting away (Not getting away)
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and they made it
So what do you tell yourself?
It’s hard to explain
(Hard to explain)
Fear and cowardice
Here and now and it’s mayday
