Man of Action Songtext
von Matthew Good Band

You are now listening to the Audio of Being

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
And 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
