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 |
