Coward Heart by Bare Minimum Lyrics

These words burn my throat and water my eyes
Chased them with coke, to keep them inside

Oh these smiles hiding teeth
The lust I can’t trust what your hiding underneath
Fights me until it resigns

This coward heart of mine
What did you find?
Sinking so low
My blood can’t find you, tell me where did you go?

You know I lost at this game before
Left my trust with my coat at the door

Turn down the lights, so the night can disguise
The distance between us, the lack of surprise

Can’t find an acre of skin
The cut hasn’t scared, so that I could let you in
Tell me and I would be fine
This coward heart of mine
What did you find?
Sinking so low
My blood can’t find you, tell me where did you go?

You know I lost at this game before
Left my trust with my coat at the door

You can turn and you walk away
Your scripted words so cold
The ending stays the same
The stakes raise and you fold
