The Coward
I see you walking through the hallways
Trying to cast fear
Finding the littlest kids
To get your sick kick out of scaring and tormenting
Look me right in the eye
A coward lays behind that absent mind
The stature of a tower
But you slither like a snake in the grass
You got a little fake grin
Your all powerful until a challenge is taken and then
You run away as another giant tries to stand up
Nothing but a coward it makes me want to throw up
A parasite of society I will not act violently
But just like the last time I will stand up
And speak out for the future professors, and comedians
The future managers, engineers and friends
The kids who mothers worry about their precious sunshine
You and I will speak up and stop this terrible crime
