Hide your face from the howling wind
No more crying out
Pick up your gun, leave those you love
Learn to jump at the sound
Go bleed overseas, don’t forget to bleed proud
You are a man now
You are a man now
You are a man now
Go on back to the house the made you
Try to burn it down
Go out walking in your daddy’s shoes
They are your shoes now
Feel the weight of the fist that hit you
It’s your fault somehow
Because you are a man now
You are a man now
You are a man now
Build a castle with walls so thick
You will never be found
Take a wife and have some kids
Never open your mouth
Go and do like your daddy did
Grow old and shut down
You are a man now
You are a man now
You are a man now

Slow Road

living in the city feels like crying in the rain
until you learn how to scream everybody looks the same
I'm gonna empty my pockets for a mountain bound train
write a song and meet a girl along the way
Come on fast train speed it up I want to get out to where I haven't been
oh poor boy don't you know it's the slow road that's gonna catch the wind
She left me standing there with my eyes on fire
I found the wind when I fell upon her lips
She ran hard and fast into the night
Saying shame on you for being afraid of this
Come on fast train speed it up I want to find out where my heart landed
Oh poor boy don’t you know it’s buried inside of you right where you left it
I’ve seen angry people hiding their faces in the dark
Spitting words like stones they’d built around their hearts
And there were children with the broken eyes of old men
Because their child eyes had been stolen from them
Come on fast train speed it up I want to find out if God exists
Oh poor boy don’t you know it’s the hands of man that have ruined this
The world’s as small as a stone I can hide it under my hands
But it’s too heavy to hold for all I don’t understand
And it’s as empty as this heart I’ve yet to know
But it’s what I don’t have that keeps me coming around for more
Come on fast train speed it up I want to get out to where the grass is green
Oh poor boy don’t you know it’s only as green as you believe

You don’t remember makin all those plans
But I do
You don’t remember promising to never do it again
But I do
Now you’re down on your knees one more time
And I don’t know where to draw the line
And this house that we built is up in smoke
But I don’t know how to let you go
I don’t know how to let you go
You don’t remember all you take from me
But I do
You don’t remember the poison that you speak
But I do
Now you’re down on your knees one more time
And I don’t know where to draw the line
And this house that we built is up in smoke
But I don’t know how to let you go
I don’t know how to let you go
Oh I’m buried under water
Holding breath for me and you
I wasn’t made to carry another
I’m gonna get away
You don’t remember how you used to hold me
But I do
You don’t remember the quiet things you told me
But I do
Now you’re down on your knees one more time
And I don’t know where to draw the line
And this house that we built is up in smoke
But I don’t know how to let you go
I don’t know how to let you go

The Corners
03:09
|

I built you a boat to get around
And we laughed so we didn't have to hear the sound
Of the water as it came in
Of the water as it came in
I don't know what it is about this heart of mine
A lighting bolt off the starting line
But I lose it in the corners every time, every time
I lose it in the corners every time, every time, every time
I made sure my words were made of gold
What I could not afford, I stole
But all that's borrowed is old
All that's borrowed is old
I don't know what it is about this heart of mine
A lighting bolt off the starting line
But I lose it in the corners every time, every time
I lose it in the corners every time, every time, every time

Grower of Trees

I am bleeding at the knuckles but I want more
My head is pounding but I want more
I want to sing until the world stands still
I want to play until I am younger still
It’s a simple thing, it’s a simple thing
I saw you at the park with your hair
You didn’t know that I was there
I dreamed about you and me getting married
And having kids, and having kids
It’s a simple thing, but it’s all that there is
I know that I am difficult to see
I’ve got worlds buried down inside of me
But I say wait love
In 50 years we’ll have all that we need
I am a grower of trees, I am a grower of trees
Can you wait for me
