lyrics
The Cowardice of Kings
And the cowardice of kings comes out when you need him
At the moment of battle, the king has a crisis
He falls to pieces on the palace floor
cursing his counsel
The cowardice of kings comes in cruelty to the weakest
Go on, call him on it and you become his new enemy
You did nothing but ask a question.
Now your picture’s on the subway station wall.
We are innocent weapons.
You know we got played
Stick around, the weather will change
Stick around, the weather will change
The cowardice of kings makes everyone a traitor
Sees refugees as enemies and immigrants as invaders
Public dissent becomes a treasonable crime
We go back to the dungeon
We are innocent weapons
You know we got played
Stick around, the weather will change
Stick around, the weather will change
Oh. I never meant to leave your love
I’ve got to believe that love
Goes on
The cowardice of kings brings shame to the nation
When soldier and joker stand separate and hostile
Only after the first shots are fired
Do they know who they’re fighting
The cowardice of kings brings out the tyrant
The cowardice of kings brings out the tyrant
We are innocent weapons
You know we got played
Stick around, the weather will change
Stick around, the weather will change
