The Man I Was Lyrics by Oh Village

Ocris

2016

What a man I was
I never understood a thing I learned
And there you were
Preaching to a choir I never heard
The words that we sang and the thoughts in my mind
They never quite aligned
Caustic in my search for you
Caught in a vain pursuit
Oh, to know what I'm to do
But I never spoke to the man in the frame
Here he is again:
Everything I hate within a man
I hear what he says
But do I have what it takes to
Understand?
The rest can begin when thе
Conversation ends
I hope it nеver ends
