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

Bridge:( (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
