I am a weak and selfish man
I only do what I know I can
I'll tell a lie to save myself
And put the blame on someone else
It's the loneliness
The loneliness of cowardice
I've been alone most all my life
I never found myself a wife
I am not proud of what I did
Seems like I ran away and hid
In the loneliness
The loneliness of cowardice
Oh the loneliness
The loneliness of cowardice
I dream that I am brave enough
To overcome the demons in my way
I dream that I can stand up straight
And say the things I always meant to say
When we are dead we're all the same
You've only got yourself to blame
You can be anything you want
But first of all you must be strong
To fight the loneliness
The loneliness of cowardice
Oh the loneliness
The loneliness of cowardice
