Cause I'm A Man

  • Like a brutal autumn sun
    It dawns on me, what have I done?
    Saying sorry ain't as good as saying why
    But it buys me a little more time
    Lost in the moment for a second time
    Each fucking doubt I make, unleash a cry
    I'm just pathetic, that's the reason why
    In desperation, all that you can do is ask me why

    'Cause I'm a man, woman
    Don't always think before I do
    'Cause I'm a man, woman
    It's the only answer I've got for you
    'Cause I'm a man, woman
    Not often proud of what I choose
    I'm a human, woman
    A greater force I answer to

    Once again, as it takes a hold
    I am aware, I'm not in control
    (You see) I have a conscience and it's never fooled
    But it's prone to being overruled
    You wanna know what I always think I'm bind by
    You never accept defeat or let it slide
    But I have no voice if I don't speak my mind
    My weakness is the source of all my pride
    I'll tell you why

    'Cause I'm a man, woman
    Don't always think before I do
    'Cause I'm a man, woman
    That's the only answer I've got for you
    'Cause I'm a man, woman
    I'll never be as strong as you
    I'm a human, human
    A greater force I answer to Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
