Demo Version

lyrics

What kind of man am I?
When the going gets tough
And I just hang my head and cry
See you running for the bus
You’re six months pregnant
Your clothes don’t fit
I think my heart is going to bust

We need things that I can’t buy
We lay in bed at night
And I pretend I don’t hear you cry
God, I hate myself this way
But I swear I’m paralyzed
Anymore I don’t know what to do or say

Something’s got to happen
Something’s got to break
Because I’m not that strong
And I’ve had more
Much more than I can take

You didn’t bargain for this
For a sixty dollar ring
An ‘I do’ and a kiss
You get a fucked-up man like me
Beaten, broke and weak
And unable to even say sorry

Something’s got to happen
Something’s got to break
Because I’m not that strong
And I’ve had more
Much more than I can take

You know, I do believe
What I really want
Is for you to make me leave
God, I hate myself this way
But I swear I’m paralyzed
Anymore I don’t know what to do or say
