Miss you when you're gone
I coast when you are here, autopilot
Why can't I breathe the air
that is right in front of me, yeah

Momma don't take my hand
Daddy won't be a man
Could someone take the cruise off?
Mamma don't take my hand
Daddy won't be a man
Been levitating too long

Costume is torn
Changing clothes with every look in the mirror
I'm not playin your game
But I guess you still get paid
Keep your money

Momma don't take my hand
Daddy won't be a man
Could someone take the cruise off?
Mamma don't take my hand
Daddy won't be a man
Been levitating too long

(Be a man)
Every time I try to be a man
(Be a man)
I wanna cry, I wanna cave in, cave in
(Be a man)
They always say I need to be a man, be a man
(Be a man)
But they don't want to have to be there, be there
(Be a man)

Momma don't take my hand
Daddy won't be a man
Could someone take the cruise off?
Mamma don't take my hand
Daddy won't be a man
Been levitating too long
