Always The Man

Spiraling down through the misery of
Bottling up all your wishes for something
More than you’ve found
In the arms of your tormentor
Holding your breath till the ritual’s done
Bleeding your love like a tear in the ocean
Wondering how it could ever have come to this
Always The Man who runs the show
Always The Man
Watering eyes cause your vision to blur
Veering you off from the path that leads homeward
Bordering on a mirage and an oasis
Always The Man who runs the show
Always The Man who’s got control
Always The Man
We all should know
Oh, should know
And nobody wants to believe he’s stolen
What nobody wants to concede they don’t have
When no one knows how make their own minds up
Always The Man who runs the show
Always The Man who’s got control
Always The Man
We all should know
Always The Man
