The Man You Want to Be

The Man You Want to Be - Jenna Torres

I hear the front door slam

There you go again

I set the wrong fate

And now you're gone

I try to hold you close

I try to be so sweet

I'm just a messenger

Oh baby don't blame me

You pick up that pot

Like you pickin' up a girl

To kill the pain that's killin' you

The pain you cannot run

You can try to drown it

Drive that train run off the track

But now we just so used to it

We bend the heaven back

But I still see what's underneath

Is the man you want to be

Well I'm not saying it's wrong

To take a shadow too

You just try to turn they're heard of red

When you feelin' blue

Baby just don't count on it

You know it's just a fleeding face

Just sort to hide the truth

Baby you still wake up you

You pick up that pot

Like you pickin' up a girl

To kill the pain that's killin' you

The pain you cannot run

You can try to drown it

Drive that train run off the track

But now we just so used to it

We've been the heaven back

But I still see what's underneath

Is the man you want to be

Reach down deep inside you

Reach beyond the stars

Reach for something deep

To remember who you are

Has the pain and heart ache

That you can't leave behind

There is something greater

Just be glad to be alive

If you put down that pot

Like you lying down a girl

Accept the pain as part of you

Something you cannot run

Please don't try to drown it

Gonna keep that train on track

Aren't she getting tired

Of going the heaven back

I still see what's underneath

Is the man you want to be
