Face Like Thunder

Ain't no courage around here
Nod along until it is not insincere
Another one gets through the year
It is just self preservation

And you got to scream fire not rape
Or the fuckers will all run away
Just how the wind blew that day
You are shit out of luck

And you keep your lips sealed
Watch too many gangster films
Content living under a heel
And so the scumbags always win
But it is never your place to judge

And it sure is no wonder with a face like thunder that nobody will follow your lead
Because it is always surface no one sees beyond to purpose or what is one layer underneath
Give it a pleasant enough name and everyone is on the train blow it all to smithereens
Remember when you had some sense now it all just depends and you are drifting with the breeze

Well I was pushed and provoked and when I finally spoke I was called an ugly name
But I am the instigator for having the gall to take the spit off of my face
And you are never sure if you have made the right call but there is a pressure in your chest
You know there is something wrong here and you cannot just disappear into the crowd with your cowardice

Because someones got to say enough is enough
But there ain't no courage around here
