Man in Me

Staring into outer space
Silent in reflection
Complex is the noble art of undenied affection

I fall into a daydream
Talking to the younger boy in me
The one I wanna be and I say
I envy your sweet innocence
They say, you've nothing on your conscience
The man I am today

Way beyond the rabbit hole
Alter ego on my mind
Tiring is the noble art of empathy and kind

I dream another daydream
Talking to the younger man in me
The one I wanna be and I say
I long for youthful energy
They say, you're flying like a bumblebee
The man I am today

Tap into my tired soul
Praying for another chance
Hopeless is the noble art of finding self acceptance

I dream another daydream
Talking to the older man in me
A wiser one than me and I say
Is this the way it's gonna be
They say, this is not my prophecy
The man I am today

Flying on a carousel
Take me anywhere but where I am
Heavy is the noble art of sharing someone's pain

I dream another daydream
Talking to the stronger man in me
The one I'll never be and I say
Can we just talk it over now
They say, the talking's just begun
The man I am today

Rolling back the older years
Yesterday draws near again
Wayward is the noble art of moving on

I fall into a daydream
I hear a troubled stranger's voice in me
I didn't want to be and they say
You sure you wanna go there?
I say, beauty is the noble art of learning how to love

Awoken from a daydream
I feel a steady hand upon my shoulder
The thunderstorm is over and they say
Open out yours arms to me
I say, steady is the heartbeat you gave to me

And they say
Follow me, don't be afraid
I say, kindness is the one who made
The man I am today
