Courageous Lyrics

I want to live another life
To speak the truth and do what's right
But right or wrong I never know
I see existence from below

Before my eyes a world too high for me
I'm such a tiny man

You hold something that flourishes in your hand
I'm a destitute man

All these wasted years I left behind
All buried in the sand

I want to live another life
I do nothing but I get tired
I bite my nails until I bleed
A solid heart is all I need

What's plain to you is so obscure to me
I'm a discordant man

I don't know why I always feel so blank
I will never understand

I know we can't be more than flesh and bones
As I live in fear of dust

I hear it coming closer everyday
Is that swan song?

For the rest of my life
Won't be scared anymore

I want to be courageous
Like a rock in the freezing wind
I want to be courageous
