Too  many times you're gonna go  out with a-walkin'
Too  many times you come out late
Too  many times you set yourself  out of the scene, it makes you walk  up straight
 It makes you walk  up straight
Too  many times you trade the bottle  for the body
One  drop for breath and one for skin
You  say nobody knows the truth  about your body, are you entirely  thin?
 Are you entirely  thin?
 But if I were a good  man, would it really happen?
 Would you walk me home  and everyday from work
 But maybe I'm a good  man, wouldn't let it happen
 I believe in love,  I'm married to my work
 Cause I can be a father,  I can be a brother,  I can be a flower,  rise up in
 the dirt
 We were born to live  here, We were born to die  here
 And you know  this when you work
 Yeah, you watch  me when you work
 When you are free  from the work of this house
 Well, you know  what to do with your hands
 It's not sure
 You got a few ideas
 And when you wake  from this shell of this body
 Or will you sink  your ghost in a man?
 Well, it's not hope
 You've got something better  off your sleeve
 ( (high) (low))
Too  many times you'll bleed your love  dry for your family
And  let it over in your sleep
You'll  overtry to hold some burden  like a man, something you  can keep
 Something you  can keep
You  smell the scent of something burning  in the kitchen
He  smells the future on the lawn
These  are the things we've come to recognize  as truth, we cut the right  into wrong
 We cut the right  into wrong
 But if I were a good  man, would it really happen?
 Would you walk me home  and everyday from work
 But maybe I'm a good  man, wouldn't let it happen
 I believe in love,  I'm married to my work
 Cause I could be a father,  I could be a brother,  I could be a flower,  rise up
 in the dirt
 We were born to live  here, We were born to die  here
 And you know  this when you work
 Yeah, you watch  me when you work
 It seems that we  used to live like pebbles
 But now we get  scared like our parents
 Or struggle and fade
 It's just a waste of money
 And when you wake  up tomorrow, my son
 Will you be the father  of something terrible
 It will it shine,  without your life  (x3)
 But It won't bury  you, cause we know
Somewhere  in the darkness,  you will find love,  baby you will find love  (x2)
 And You will feel young  again (x3)
 And you will feel young
