Just Another Man
Every song I write
Is either violent or depressive
I'm crying or I'm aggressive
I'm making a bad impression
Don't mention its my obsession
To finally be content with
Everything that stays around me
God, I'm searching for a blessing
What's the right direction
The path less traveled
Shards of glass replace the gravel
Its hard to fight the demons
When they constantly surround you
Its hard to fly away
When all your feelings keep you grounded
How can I relay
The things I really wanna say
When all my thoughts are so confounding
Life is so astounding
Our bodies work perfectly
Biology is probably the only thing that's perfect
On this fucked up planet
Hail Mary, God dammit
Stale panties cover branches
Nail the hands of all the sinners
Take us back to the beginning
Eating breakfast in the kitchen
Grapefruits and Cheerios
I'm yelling up to God
But I know he doesn't hear me though
I pledge to pick my poison
Swallow all my pride
And try to find what's most important
Commit myself to something
Hitch a ride and just enjoy it
Live the life of Peter Pan
I'm doing what I can
I compare myself to everyone
I'm just another man
Doing what I can
Don't know what else to do
Every time I make a plan
Man, its always falling through
No matter what i'm damned
And this life is on a loop
I'm just another man
Keep on moving forward
But I'm getting pretty bored
My guess is that I'm losing
I'm not keeping track of score
Keep on getting bruises
I don't need to take the tour
I think I've been here before
I got no techs
And no Rolex
But a 12 year scotch
And a boat-load of stress
I'm tryna reach the top
But the steps don't end
And the branch won't bend
And my text won't send
So forget my friends
No rest for the wicked
Every opportunity
Is slipping through the wickets
Calling out for answers
All I hear is fucking crickets
I'm just another man
I can promise you that
I'm doing what I can
I can promise you that
I promise you that
What I can and I will
Doesn't always fit the bill
I could write it in my will
But I'm always standing still
Elbows leaning on the sill
Still trying hard to feel
Anything thats fucking real; chill
Relax; kick back with a cold beer
Its hard to get there
Can't steer out of here
I'm a man I got fears
Everybody cheers
But I don't have a glass
Doing what I can
Don't know what else to do
Every time I make a plan
Man, its always falling through
No matter what i'm damned
And this life is on a loop
I'm just another man
Keep on moving forward
But I'm getting pretty bored
My guess is that I'm losing
I'm not keeping track of score
Keep on getting bruises
I don't need to take the tour
I think I've been here before
I think I've been here before
I think I've been here before
I'm just another man
Find me by the willow tree
I'm wallowing in misery
My pillow is a brittle leaf
I let the weather get to me
I'm just another man
I'm no different than my brothers
If the needles in the hay
Then they'll just go and find another
Everybody suffers
There's beauty in the pages
That'll never see the cover
Cause the shovel of another digs a hole
And puts 'em under
Cemented in the ground
I'm just another man and
I'm tryna be loud
With all the voices talking
Mine is drowning in the crowd
Mine is drowning in the crowd
Drowning in the crowd
But I'm the only one around
When I'm crying in my room
The only one around
When I'm looking for the proof
The only one around
When I'm riding round town
Tryna make a little sound
All the loud goes silent
Doing what I can
Don't know what else to do
Every time I make a plan
Man, its always falling through
No matter what i'm damned
And this life is on a loop
I'm just another man
Keep on moving forward
But I'm getting pretty bored
My guess is that I'm losing
I'm not keeping track of score
Keep on getting bruises
I don't need to take the tour
(Lost in all familiar land)
I think I've been here before
Doing what I can
Don't know what else to do
Every time I make a plan
Man, its always falling through
No matter what i'm damned
And this life is on a loop
I'm just another man
Keep on moving forward
But I'm getting pretty bored
My guess is that I'm losing
I'm not keeping track of score
Keep on getting bruises
I don't need to take the tour
(Lost in all familiar land)
I think I've been here before
I think I've been here before
I think I've been here before
I think I've been here before
I'm just another man
Its all just on a loop
Cemented where I stand
I'm looking for the proof
Lost in all familiar land
