To Scared for War
February 3, 2013
I was going to save you
but I'm too scared to
go to war
too scared to step up
to step out of
line
I was going to
I swear
I promise
I pledge allegiance...
but I was too
afraid, my fear
took me over
controlling me instead
of the other way
around
I was going to save you
almost went to battle for you
almost gained some scars for you
but I was too
scared to go to war
at least for you
