Niall - I'm a Man Lyrics

Trapped on an island
Stuck on an island in my head
Waving at sirens
Gripping my trident in my hand
I'm a man

My mother told me
Blood, sweat, and tears are cheap effects
That's when it hit me
I've gotta keep my mind in check
I'm a man
A man

I'm leaving you behind my friend
Cause I'm a different boy and a different man
And if you still might fail to comprehend
I won't give you hands you failed to lend
I know you'll fail to understand

I keep my soul stretched
I keep it wide to cast a net
I know it's self destructive
I often feel it in my chest
So I ran and I ran

I wanna help you
I wanna cure you of disease
I wanna carry you
Even with both my broken knees
But I ran and I ran
I ran

Cause you always seem to let me down
I tend to light one up when you're around
You always seem to stress me out
There's a saying that describes you best
"Take what you need and leave the rest"
You always seem to let me down
Yeah you always seem to let me down
You always seem to let me down
