Coward (feat. Sonny Moore) Lyrics
You may find that my appetite gets its way
It keeps on growing and growing
Before you know it I'm a beast swallowing prey
And it is clear, it is clear
It's as clear as a fucking bell
The more I wear off on you
The more I seen the way i'll smell
Come on, get a way and save yourself
Come on, turn away and don't look back.
Come on, get a way and save yourself.
Come on, gray skies are turning black.
Cuz I will always hurt everyone I love
If I were you, I'd run away cuz it's true that
I will always hurt everyone I love.
I make it for you, but your bound to play if I adore you
You will see, that there's a blood clot in my heart
I'm trying to make time to push it out but I can't quite seem to start
And it is sore, it is sore
It's so sore that it hurts to feed.
You keep on taking little pieces of me
I'm gonna show you how to bleed
Come on, get a way and save yourself
Come on, turn away and don't look back.
Come on, get a way and save yourself.
Come on, gray skies are turning black.
Cuz I will always hurt everyone I love
If I were you, I'd run away cuz it's true that
I will always hurt everyone I love.
I make it for you, but your bound to play if I adore you
I think I'll keep you in a place where I can see you
But I know I'll break you like before, and I just can't do this anymore
Cuz I will always hurt everyone I love
If I were you, I'd run away cuz it's true that
I will always hurt everyone I love.
I make it for you, but your bound to play if I adore you
I make it for you (for you)
It keeps on growing and growing
Before you know it I'm a beast swallowing prey
And it is clear, it is clear
It's as clear as a fucking bell
The more I wear off on you
The more I seen the way i'll smell
Come on, turn away and don't look back.
Come on, get a way and save yourself.
Come on, gray skies are turning black.
If I were you, I'd run away cuz it's true that
I will always hurt everyone I love.
I make it for you, but your bound to play if I adore you
I'm trying to make time to push it out but I can't quite seem to start
And it is sore, it is sore
It's so sore that it hurts to feed.
You keep on taking little pieces of me
I'm gonna show you how to bleed
Come on, turn away and don't look back.
Come on, get a way and save yourself.
Come on, gray skies are turning black.
If I were you, I'd run away cuz it's true that
I will always hurt everyone I love.
I make it for you, but your bound to play if I adore you
But I know I'll break you like before, and I just can't do this anymore
If I were you, I'd run away cuz it's true that
I will always hurt everyone I love.
I make it for you, but your bound to play if I adore you

BTW, the lyrics read, "But your bound to bleed if I adore you." Not "Play".
IMO, this song is expressing his feelings towards his lack to keep people happy in his life. Either due to being selfish or possibly drug use or cheating. He loves people but he will hurt them in the end and can't help himself.
I can't believe they took this instrumental from the soundtrack of Underworld (to jog your memory it plays in the first one when Michael Corvin is in the back of the police car shifting into a Lycan) and made it into an actual song. I was so excited, still am. The lyrics suit the riffs and the song still carries that dark feeling it did in the movie. I love it! The lyrics I think are a bit self explanatory lol. "I will hurt you if I fall for you, so run... far away."
Actually, the song from Underworld that Ookie is thinking about "Sword" by Ashes Divide, remixed by Danny Lohner. <3 They sound so very much like, though.
Now; there has been some comments here about this songs and its relation to the movie Underworld. Since those comments lead me astray when I was looking for a song that is played in the movie (during Micheal's metamorphosis) because they were stating falsehoods I will give the facts in this comment. Here they are; Underworld was released 2003. Seeing that this song (Coward) was released 2007 and the other song (Sword, by Ashes Divide) was released 2008 neither of them can be the origin to the song played during the scene when Michael is changing to werewolf form of a Lycan. Thus, this is not the song played in the movie. There is however; in the end of the closing credits, a reference to the song that is played. The reference states: "COWARD - Written by Wes Borland and Danny Lohner - Performed by Renholder". So it seems evident that the song on this page was written as a sort of tribute or at least inspired by the movie Underworld. This may be something valuable to hold in mind in the future when trying to grasp the meaning of this band's songs. They have used material from the movie Underworld, not the other way around. May help you interpret this band's songs more correctly. For the future; please stay critical of your sources and remember to check them. The ending credits of the movie is more authentic than some comments on yahoo etc. (Just because you don't find it on Spotify doesn't mean that the song doesn't exist) I have written this comment for people who, like me, has been led astray in their search for the song played in Underworld during Michael's Metamorphosis. It is not intended as an insult towards anybody. Good luck!
