Man of Action by Matthew Good Band Lyrics

You are now listening to the Audio of Being
(Unintelligible)

Between the night and day
Lost in the law of averages
What would you know
Unless you'd lived a life of it?

They say the kid sold out
In love with himself, run ragged
Always looked to be a man of action
'Cause that's what the old man
Should have been, but...

This world it wore him out, eh Pa?
This world it wears you out

I disappeared today
I went under if only for a second
And I found where the lights drown
If you lie down
You can disappear altogether
You can disappear
I got me a whore head
I got me a day star
I lost me control of myself
And baby, I don't want it back
No, I don't wanna be like that
If this is us in control
Of ourselves

Between the night and day
With so few eyes left open
Your forgiveness ain't a neighbourhood
That I'm looking to live in
Maybe this world it wore me out
This world it wears you out

I disappeared today
I went under, if only for a second
And I found where the lights drown
If you lie down
You can disappear altogether
You can disappear altogether
You can disappear

I got me a whore head
I got me a day star
I lost me control of myself
And baby, I don't want it back
No, I don't wanna be like that
If this is us in control
Of ourselves
