The Man in Me

I told you I could only love as hard as I can throw

And I lost my touch years ago

This is as far as I’m gonna let this go

So don’t tell me what I already know

I know you want me to relax

I know you don’t want setbacks

I told you I don’t believe in this stuff

You told me that’s just messed up

I know I treated you cruelly

Guess I’ve found the man in me

You told me

“Well maybe I painted myself a picture of you

With colours you would never use”

Thinking that it’s growing pains

Knowing it’s a bruise

Stop looking for the best in me

And I’ll stop calling you

I know you want me to relax

I know you don’t want setbacks

I told you I don’t believe in this stuff

You told me that’s just messed up

I know I treated you cruelly

Guess I’ve found the man in me

Something’s gotta give and it can’t be me

I’m out in the rain yeah I’m on my knees

Something’s gotta give and it can’t be me

It’s been too hard of a year to be knocked off my feet

Something’s gotta give and it can’t be me

It’s been a long long time since I’ve felt relief

Something’s gotta give and it can’t be me

My heart’s in my throat, my heart’s on my sleeve

I know you want me to relax

I know you don’t want setbacks

I told you I don’t believe in this stuff

You told me that’s just messed up

I know I treated you cruelly

Guess I’ve found the man in me
