How To Be A Man

I’m so good at excuses but apologies

No no no no

I could never find

Tried to wade my way through this

The search it goes

On and on

Wasted all this time

I could fake it til I make it

But where do I start?

Everything I held is breaking

Like the last time I held someone’s heart

Guess I got this all wrong

Losing myself to these one night stands

Bottle in my hand

Now I’m drunk and alone

Tried and I’ve tried but don’t understand

How to be a man

Be a man

What if I can’t forgive

Myself for things I can’t fix

Is the blame all mine

Tried so hard to resist

But felt my hands turned to fists

clenching them so tight

Found out I just can’t face it

built walls up so high

so high

Maybe I just can’t change it

Even if I tried

Guess I got this all wrong

Losing myself to these one night stands

Bottle in my hand

Now I’m drunk and alone

Tried and I’ve tried but don’t understand

How to be a man

Be a man

So go on call me out

Kick me while I’m down

Go another round

I can take it, I can't take it girl

Say it to my face

Tell me I’m to blame

Tell me I’m the same

Put me in my place

Wherever i fit

Guess I got this all wrong

Losing myself to these one night stands

Bottle in my hand

Now I’m drunk and alone

Tried and I’ve tried but don’t understand

How to be a man

Be a man
