Coward

(album: The Fire - 2010)

I blame myself for never saying anything.
You're dead to me,
but I'm the fool who still believes
that one day you'll actually see
that you missed out on everything.
My innocence you devoured,
you fuckin coward!

I'm finding faith in myself tonight
and finally, I got it right.
I must forgive you to move on.
It's my only choice;
cause' you'll never come
to fill up all the cracks in this foundation.

You're the fear, all the panic and shame.
I'm afraid I'll be like you one day.
I'd love to hear the things you tell yourself
to pass the blame.

Your own daughter barely knows your face.
You set the fire and then walked away,
leaving everyone to clean the mess that you have made.
Everything you passed down to me,
The stiff right hand, this fuckin disease.
What do I get for being your son...
Nothing!

I'm finding faith in myself tonight
and finally, I got it right.
I must forgive you to move on.
It's my only choice;
cause' you'll never come
to fill up all the cracks in this foundation.

Jesus Christ, look what you've done.
Abandoning everyone that you should love.
You fuckin failed me.
All that I have left
is a choice to forgive or forget.
Hold your hand to the fire
You fuckin liar

I'm finding faith in myself tonight
and finally, I got it right.
I must forgive you to move on.
It's my only choice;
cause' you'll never come
to fill up all the cracks in this foundation.
