Lyrics

Men

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

This is the sign

I use to wear

This is the line

It says I care

I found a reason

I found a tear

Last year

I am a boy

You are a man

I am indifferent

You want a plan

I'm getting out

I'm getting there

Next year

We are in love

We are at war

I feed myself

You feed the poor

I write the fiction

You write the lore

These are addictions

That seem to form

And if I get out

I won't be saved

You are my keeper

I am your slave

You're in my thoughts

You're in my way

Keep all the weakers

Bury the brave

This is a game

You're involved

I am the player

You have control

There is an ante

There is a toll

Buy in

I want a space

You want a home

You need to have it

You need to own

Let's build a flower

Let's watch it grow

And die

We are in love

We are at war

I feed myself

You feed the poor

I write the fiction

You write the lore

These are addictions

That seem to form

And if I get out

I won't be saved

You are my keeper

I am your slave

You're in my thoughts

You're in my way

Keep all the weakers

Bury the brave
