The Coward

I walked through the darkened doorway and I found some light
What will we do when there is no more pain no more dark left to fight

Pull me free and look at what weakness has done to me
I kept at bay the intimacy so into me you will not see

I'm not a coward
I've just never been tested
Here, at the front line I'll wait
Here at the front I'll tempt fate

Kindliness kept me weak
In all those years that I have been misconceived
Shadowed by failure I still believed
That fortune favours the bold

Pull me free and look at what weakness has done to me
I kept at bay the intimacy so into me you will not see

I'm not a coward
I've just never been tested
Here, at the front line I'll wait
Here at the front I'll tempt fate
