Make a Man of You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You've grown too tall again Somebody better clip your wings Before you fly away [Verse 2] You are too bold to live Somebody better learn to give Or learn to lose with grace [Pre-Chorus] The sky knows your name now The leaves, they fall too fast You're dying in the grass And I can't let this moment pass [Chorus] Your breath, it reeks of ocean breezes Your eyes have turned too blue The sky holds no challenge for you What strange diseases That make a man of you [Verse 3] Here is the sky's parole Somebody's got to leave it whole Go on and take it [Verse 4] The earth's too small to breathe And if you can't get free Well I know you can fake it [Pre-Chorus] Your lips don't move the air The sun comes tumbling down You're fading into novas And you leave me on the ground [Chorus] Your face it reeks of ocean breezes Your eyes have changed their hue The skies hold no memory of you What strange diseases That make a man of you
