Be the Man

Lately

All my hearts have been breaking

All these games I've been playing

Straying from the plan

Just trying to be the man

It's hard now trying to be balanced man

Every ounce of me is begging for a midnight plan

Crossfire of arrogance and a humble stance

Heaven help me I just really want to be your man

I can't help it

I was born selfish

Tired of being all that I am

Lately

All my hearts have been breaking

All these games I've been playing

Straying from the plan

So blame me, but you can't say that I'm safe when

I'm just trying to keep changing

Changing all that I can

'Cause I'm trying to be the man

Chemtrails carving up a shadow past

Got my face up on the building but I'm short on cash

Some days I can see the worn out trail

But in the morning it's still hard for me to find myself

Lately

All my hearts have been breaking

All these games I've been playing

Straying from the plan

So blame me, but you can't say that I'm safe when

I'm just trying to keep changing

Changing all that I can

'Cause I'm trying to be the man

I can't help it

I was born selfish

Tired of being all that I am

Save me, 'cause all my bones have been aching

All these prayers I've been faking

It's time to make a stand

Lately

All my hearts have been breaking

All these games I've been playing

Straying from the plan

So blame me, but you can't say that I'm safe when

I'm just trying to keep changing

Changing all that I can

'Cause I'm trying to be the man
