"Man" lyrics

"Man"

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
