[Verse 1]
Crudely defined
I'm just a poser, lost impersonations of what a man should be
And, oh, of how a man should feel, I've tried
For seemingly now my entire life to play a part
[Verse 2]
All posture aside
I pray for all those versions of myself I've tried
To be for though they may seem obvious to you, I know
That you could see through them all, but they were always real to me
[Pre-Chorus]
You go ahead, I'll be right behind
I just need somethin' to calm down my mind
[Chorus]
Sometimes I wish you could hear all the thoughts that I cannot sing
That I could show you the wounds before they just start growin'
That we could walk into the dark, unafraid with our lanterns glowin'
And see it for all that it is
[Verse 3]
Tear it apart
This man I am needs mеdicine to wade through the dark
For this mannеquin, this mess I'm in, this folding inside
Stuck in a stoic silence of a stubborn, yet brittle mind
[Pre-Chorus]
You go ahead, I'll be right behind
I just need somethin' to calm down my mind
[Chorus]
Sometimes I wish you could hear all the thoughts that I cannot sing
That I could show you the wounds before they just start growin'
That we could walk into the dark, unafraid with our lanterns glowin'
And see it for all that it is
