Coward - The Kindred

I’m sorry for the wait

But I’ve been thinking this through all day

There’s someone in my place

Well I can’t cope

I’m wallowing in disgrace

But still I’m betting that I won’t change

You’re miles ahead of me to better things

But I’ll stay the same

Stuck in the middle

I’m in the same place that I was before I met you

Nothing but standing water

The bug bites sting and I regret everything

I regret everything

I know I’ve made mistakes

I know the blood in my veins runs cold

I haven’t yet grown up

But I’ve grown old

You made a career

While I’m still doing the same damn things I did when I was 18

And it’s taking a toll on my body

Like I’m tearing at the seams

I regret everything

My bed is made and empty

There’s nobody in there with me

My head is big swimming as I lie forever sleeping

I haven’t even been awake in years
