Coward

Color me a coward...
I fight my battles
From behind closed doors.
It's never my ass
That I put on the line
When ink meets paper.
Empty words are spoken,
The promises are false,
And mistakes are made.
In time you'll forget,
Or so I hope...
Because to go down a coward
Is no way to go.
Why tell the truth
When the lie's so pretty?
Color me a coward...
I'll never know true bravery,
Because the hill
Has no trenches
