lyrics

man-child

man-child, who are you waiting for?
oh, man-child, there’s no one who can make up your mind
there’s no one who can make this alright

so, he gets drunk, he gets broke, he gets home
in the morning he swears he’ll begin

old friend, oh you’re killing me
there’s no friend, who could watch you as you turn out
the lights
there’s only so many last times

so, he gets drunk, he gets broke, he gets home
in the morning he swears he’ll begin again

the proud clown of a dead-end show
there’s no shame, to sing them what they’re
waiting for
but you just don’t have the heart anymore

so, he gets drunk, he gets broke, he gets home
in the morning he swears he’ll begin again

you were right, i was wrong
what the hell was i thinking of?
i’m too young to grow up

all this light, all this love,
all the colours i’m dreaming of
places i promised i’d go

i always knew…you were meant for more

i’m the weight in your chest
i’m the dreams that you chase
i always knew you were meant for more

so he gets drunk, he gets broke, he gets home
in the morning i know he’ll begin
