Il testo della Courage

Its good to be the king, ive heard it said
Thats why i let you put a crown on my head
Hoping that ill never be forced to fake
Actions that ill never have to take

I let you think i was a better man
With pretty words about how true i am
Humbly pretending to be brave and strong
Inside im wondering, what if im wrong?

Every once in a while youll see
Things are not what they seem to be
Like the moment you saw through me

Ah, but when push comes to shove
I had lost the thing i love
When i lost the courage of my convictions
(courage of my convictions)

I never let you see my doubting side
Ive always felt theres things you cant confide
I need to be what i need to be
However artificially

And now i havent got a thing to show
For all the posing and the bravado
You tested me and i had to fail
No longer am i a super male

I was proud and i had to fall
Now my image has grown so small
And to think that i had it all

Ah, but when push came to shove
I had lost the thing i love
When i lost the courage of my convictions
(courage of my convictions)
And i live in constant fear
That ill never have you here
Til i find the courage of my convictions
(courage of my convictions)

Ah, but when push comes to shove
I will have the thing i love
If i have the courage of my convictions
(courage of my convictions)
And your heart i would enslave
And this whole world i would save
If i have the courage of my convictions
(courage of my convictions
