Take a look and see for yourself
What makes a man a man
And I will step back to the life I left
Maybe you won't forget who I am
Wake up in the middle of the night
Just don't believe everything's all right
When these thoughts are running around your head
And it's late, so you don't really want to say goodbye
So you just head down the stairs that lead you out
The sound of silence is as loud as a gunshot
"Forgive me" were the only words they read on the note you left
[2x]
Singing, oh...
I can't find any way out.
I can't find any way out.
I wish I could live where the sea meets the land
The ocean and I would be the best of friends
And I'd make her my own, I would float in her waves
She would sing me to sleep as she carries me away
Won't you carry me away?
Oh, please, carry me away
Ocean, carry me away
You're my better half
[2x]
Singing, oh...
I can't find any way out.
I can't find any way out.
(I don't really want to sing anymore
There's got to be something I could live for
So just show me now.
Everyday is just another regret
It's time for me to give it a rest and it's over now)

What makes a man a man.
