I'll be the blade sliding down your throat I'll be the knot in your hanging rope I'll be the steel toe kicking in your ribs I'll be the last one you ever gonna fuck with How does it feel to be so small? How does it feel to walk away from it all? How does it feel When your words mean nothing at all? The true face of a coward is the back of his head The true face of a coward is the back of his head Every time you speak, it's never useful You spent a life on the fence, you're always neutral Weak hearted, a shape-shifter Nowhere all the time, a natural-born quitter Can't hack-it, bullshitter The last to show up, the first to surrender You stand for nothing, you only stand in the way Of making progress or anything resembling a change Sit on your hands, face away Put your nose in the corner and start running away You don't run shit, you only run back On a treadmill going nowhere real fast You'll turn on a dime, you play both sides But you've been found out trying to toe the line So, give 'em more rope I'll watch you hang and choke You never wanted justice You only wanted hope You are of no service You are of no use You have no purpose There is no truce The true face of a coward (the true face of a coward) Is the back of his head The true face of a coward (the true face of a coward) Is the back of his head
