"Islands Of Men" lyrics

"Islands Of Men"

You look green, like you've been
To see islands of men
Thought you'd find what it means
Peace of mind

You can't keep womankind in your dreams
You can't keep running away
From what is real and what is fake
You can't keep running away from what is real

Lazy eyed, you look weak
You have seen islands of men
Sinking low as you speak
I'm not surprised

Will you stop running away
From what is real and what is fake
Will you stop running away
From what is real and what is fake, oh
Uh, will you stop running away, running away
From what is real
Will you stop running away
Will you stop running away
Will you stop running away

Ooh
Man is an island, man is an island
Man is an island, man is an island
Man is an island, man is an island, yeah
Man is an island, man is an island, yeah
Man is an island, man is an island
Ooh
Running away, running away
Running away, running away
Running away all the time
To this horrible place

You can't keep running away
You can't keep running away
You can't keep running away
You can't keep running away
You can't keep running away
You can't keep running away
You cannot keep, you can't keep running away
Running away, you can't keep running away
You can't keep, you can't keep running away
