Man Lyrics by Desert Bloom

2020

[Intro]
Man, tell what's the time
'Cause I'm not feeling fine
I can't recall who we're supposed to be

She closed her eyes and cried
A seven minute drive
Was dealt a shitty hand until the day she died

And as I slip away
There's little left to say
And nothing here keeps the thoughts away

Now I am on the ground
I'm gasping for the air to free me
From the weight I'm bound

[Verse 1]
Fear and it surrounds me
Oh, I try my best to tell myself
I know what I'll be
Whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh oh

I can't believe I did that
Was it really me or am I just a fading man?
Whoa-oh oh
A fading man

Lying on the bathroom floor
Will someone please just tell me what we're fighting for?
Whoa-oh oh
Whoa-oh oh

Screaming in the back seat
Oh, we're nodding heads, you're searching for the
Backbeat
Whoa-oh oh
The backbeat

[Chorus]
Never doing what we're told
I can't wait for growing old
Listen up, it takes some time
Pretending to stabilize

My days get sent away
In a little gray pen charged up today
And I can't keep these thoughts away
So hide me in the backroom
Swimming with the sine waves

[Verse 2]
Stuck up on the high shelf
Oh, she has to take a break to discover herself
Whoa-oh oh
Discover yourself

You all stare right through me
Oh, you won the war but hate your own hypocrisy
Whoa-oh oh
Your hypocrisy

[Chorus]
Never doing what we're told
I can't wait for growing old
Listen up, it takes some time
Pretending to stabilize

Never doing what we're told
I can't wait for growing old
Listen up, it takes some time
Pretending to stabilize

My days get sent away
In a little gray pen charged up today
And I can't keep these thoughts away
So hide me in the backroom
Swimming with the sine waves

My days get sent away
In a little gray pen charged up today
And I can't keep these thoughts away
So hide me in the backroom
Swimming with the sine waves

[Bridge]
Everything is lended
Living life pretending
Absent minds are vacant
We can try to fake it

I can't take back from what I bought
I can't go back, it's you I've lost
I can't slow down, I can't see clear
I can't look back, is it fate or fear?

I can't take back from what I bought
I can't go back, it's you I've lost
I can't slow down, I can't see clear
I can't look back, is it fate or fear?

I can't take back from what I bought
I can't go back, it's you I've lost
I can't slow down, I can't see clear
I can't look back, is it fate or fear?

I can't take back from what I bought
I can't go back, it's you I've lost
I can't slow down, I can't see clear
I can't look back, is it fate or fear?

[Chorus]
My days get sent away
In a little gray pen charged up today
And I can't keep these thoughts away
So hide me in the backroom
Swimming with the sine waves

My days get sent away
In a little gray pen charged up today
And I can't keep these thoughts away
So hide me in the backroom
Swimming with the sine waves

[Outro]
(My days get sent away)
Everything is lended
(In a little gray pen charged up today)
Living life pretending
(And I can't keep these thoughts away)
Absent minds are vacant
(So hide me in the backroom)
We can try to fake it
(Swimming with the sine waves)

My days get sent away
(Everything is lended)
In a little gray pen charged up today
(Living life pretending)
And I can't keep these thoughts away
(Absent minds are vacant)
So hide me in the backroom
(We can try to fake it)
Swimming with the sine waves
