I\'l let you walk first across the road
just to watch you walk.
Ah see here I failed!
You want to feel my strength
and security.
Let you know, you mean more to me
than a second chance.
To contemplate all the things I said
to peel my skin back and see all red.
I said as intended
in my insecure mind.
To think you are a man, means you are blind
A man does as a man should
to think just means that a man could.
Can I burn the youth inside of me?
Not the goofy one but the procrastinator
And watch it burn.
Like our bloodshot eyes on Sunday mornings.
My fork grew heavier with every meal.
This is not how a man should feel because,
I was growing weak
or because every mouthful went without return.
I\'m sorry, I love you, the man inside loves you.
The child you see, just forgot to.
