Make a Man of You |
You’ve grown too tall again |
Somebody better clip your wings |
Before you fly away |
You are too bold to live |
Somebody better learn to give |
Or learn to lose with grace |
The sky knows your name now |
The leaves, they fall too fast |
You’re dying in the grass |
And I can’t let this moment pass |
Your breath, it reeks of ocean breezes |
Your eyes have turned too blue |
The sky holds no challenge for you |
What strange diseases |
That make a man of you |
Here is the sky’s parole |
Somebody’s got to leave it whole |
Go on and take it |
The earth’s too small to breath |
And if you can’t get free |
I know you can fake it |
Your lips don’t move the air |
The sun comes tumbling down |
You’re fading into novas |
And you leave me on the ground |
Your face it reeks of ocean breezes |
Your eyes have changed their hue |
The skies hold no memory of you |
What strange diseases |
That make a man of you |
