Joseph Arthur - Crying like a man

^EmYou must destroy All who you employ To pr^Amotect your last invention Work ^Bhard its destruction Ignore your good ^Emintention You must ignore the wrong voice Whose voice ^AmA peculiar choice Well I'm ^Bsure You and I can't r^Ememember Living like a backwards trainwreck trying to ^Amdisguise the deceit Intrinsic in our step When love's ^Bgot us by the neck Why can't we just su^Emrrender

^EmI'll be quiet I won't wake you ^Amup ^BI'll be quiet I won't wake you ^Emup

Cleaning out your ^Aminside in line From your ^Btoes up through your spine Pretend you're a ^Emconductor Maestro without music God without man ^AmMe without you Holding your hand ^BFalling like a leaf Crying like a ^Emman

^EmWe silently confess through open eyes Setting fire ^Amto the web spun right behind ^BIn my mind's a spider And in your heart's a ^Emfly When you're meek you are malicious Like a tame dog ^Amgrowing vicious ^BSomehow still suspicious Faithlessly ^Emreligious
