Words Werent Made For Cowards (520) - Lyrics by Rhodes Happy


Lyrics
I am transparent    An open book    There's no choice in the matter    But the breath from my mind    Is living air    And the notes from my heart    Are what I share    Words weren't made for cowards    There's not much to hide behind    We can see for a mile    Without our eyes    I can see through a smile    To any lie    Must I pry your lips apart?    And look for thoughts    Look for thoughts    Beneath your tongue    So you think nothing said    Is nothing lost?    Well, I would buy every line    At any cost    Do I have to dig?    Do I have to prod?    Reach into your chest    And pull your feelings out?    Are you dancing dead?    Or maybe walking toast?    If you feel anything    Be brave    Come forth    Let it show    Tell me what d'you think of life?    Tell me do you think at all?    Never fear    There's a place    Where you are safe    Where you don't have to be real    Or have a face    My time's too short to waste on    Things you say without your brain    Will you paint works of art    When you speak?    When you open your mouth    Will I weep?    Do I have to dig?    Do I have to prod?    Reach into your chest    And pull your feelings out?    Are you dancing dead?    Or maybe walking toast?    If you feel anything    Be brave    Come forth    Let it show    I will watch you like a hawk    Wait for you to make a slip    Think it's easy to fake what you know?    You'll never fool anyone    With your little show    You are transparent regardless of    All the efforts made    Efforts made to mask your face    You reveal everything in a phrase    You conceal what your mouth betrays    Do I have to dig?    Do I have to prod?    Reach into your chest    And pull your feelings out?    Are you dancing dead?    Maybe walking toast?    If you feel anything    Be brave    Come forth    Let it show    Do I have to dig?    Do I have to prod?    Reach into your chest    And pull your feelings out?    Are you dancing dead?    Maybe walking toast?    If you feel anything    Be brave    Come forth    Let it show-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
