Coward
I am leaving behind
A tortured genius
With a glorious soul
For a friend who wants to be more
My heart is heavy
As I think about all that I am leaving behind
Our glorious music lessons
Along with his kind words
All he ever wanted was to be loved for himself
And I was the only one to see the man he truly could be
If he could only get past the hatred and pain
And he would have had a chance to if only I had stayed
But I am leaving him behind
And with me goes his only chance for love
Now I know how much of a coward I am
To leave such a wonderful soul behind
I am leaving behind
A tortured genius
With a glorious soul
For a friend who wants to be more
My heart is heavy
As I think about all that I am leaving behind
Our glorious music lessons
Along with his kind words
All he ever wanted was to be loved for himself
And I was the only one to see the man he truly could be
If he could only get past the hatred and pain
And he would have had a chance to if only I had stayed
But I am leaving him behind
And with me goes his only chance for love
Now I know how much of a coward I am
To leave such a wonderful soul behind
