The second track and the first song of Conspiracy of One, Come Out Swinging is about facing your fears.
The song was used in the Sega Dreamcast game Crazy Taxi 2 as one of the in-game songs.
[Verse 1]
You brace and hold it all inside
It's more than you can stand
No one around even tries
Tries to understand
[Chorus]
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging
Come out alone
They're in your way, they're in your way
But as long as you're swinging
Strong then you'll get by
[Verse 2]
Your pacing's wearing out a line
Right beside your bed
The scene replays a million times
Stuck inside your head
And though you stand in place
Your mind escapes
Read between the lies
Smile's on your face
You fake like you're ok
[Chorus]
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging
Out on your own
They're in your way, they're in your way
You may be stinging
But you'll get by
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging
Never alone again
[Post-Chorus]
The pain inside can guide your way
[Bridge]
Midnight, no sleep
Inside, you scream to
No one, hears you fall
Daylight, prove me today, day
One more try
[Chorus]
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging
Come out alone
They're in your way, they're in your way
You may be stinging
But you'll get by
Don't turn away, don't turn away
Come out swinging
Never alone again
[Outro]
Pain inside leads you, leads you through so you'll get by
