Oh a man is shot down
Struggling to breath
Oh a man is shot down from his willow tree
Oh a man is not what I thought it might mean
Oh a man sure ain't who I'm going to be

But how many times can I ask
If this is all that life has really planned
And how many times can a man be seen
Starring at the wall in front of him

But I know who I goddamn am
And it sure ain't a goddamn man

But I'm holding onto what I know
I said I'm holding, oh I'm holding and I won't let got
Cause I know
Woah I know
Yeah I know
Who I goddamn am
And it sure ain't, oh it sure ain't a goddamn man

But I can't stop my mind today
From running away from those old dark days
Where all I do is question and wonder why
Could this all be a goddamn lie?
