Coward I Ignored

And when my confidence grows dull
And the sentences you've scribbled
On the plaster of my skull
Crack and groan
Through the alleyways and passages
That tunnel through my soul
The alleyways and passages
That tunnel through my soul

And when the siren sings her spell
By whisperings of discord
I have been compelled
To know her well
Means calamity and consequence
These have I travailed
Calamity and consequence
These have I travailed

I have peered at the hesitance that roars
Seated here with my back against the door
I've been detained for years by the coward I ignored
Ooh ooh ooh

When the eloquence falls dumb
A broken voice in bandages
Of stutters that become
Frail and so numb
The silhouettes and shatterings
Which I must overcome
The silhouettes and shatterings
Which I must overcome

I have peered at the hesitance that roars
Seated here with my back against the door
I've been detained for years by the coward I ignored
And I have peered at the hesitance that roars
Seated here with my back against the door
I've been detained for years by the coward I ignored
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
