The Elected - I'll Be Your Man

You gotta learn to lie to make everyone happy
You're gonna have to cry to make it on your own

But I can't see you now, put down your hands
No, I can't feel you now, give me your hand
'Cause I've been waiting as long as I can stand
So if you ever need someone, I'll be your man
Yeah, I'll be your man
Yeah, I'll be your man

You don't have to go and die
To show people you're hurting
You're gonna have to try to
Put out the fire if you're burning

But I can't see you now, put down your hands
No, I can't feel you now, give me your hand
'Cause we've been waiting as long as we can stand
And should you ever need anyone, I'll be your man
Yeah, I'll be your man
Yeah, I'll be your man
(Yeah)

And I read through your poetry
Yeah, every last one
Felt like I ate too much butter
Drank too much rum
'Cause they made me feel sweet and sad
Warm, proud, and young
I've been sick inside
And angry at everyone

And I wish I could touch you
If I wasn't miles away
We could talk it all out
In your clean white place

Oh, I've done all the waiting I think I can stand
And I want you to know
Yeah, I want you to know
Yeah, I want you to know I think
You've found your man
Yeah, I'll be your man
Yeah, you've found your man
Come home to him
