What Makes You a Man - The Ninth Wave

With my head in another place

This isn’t an existence

Only myself to blame

For what you’ll do to me

I played your game

Fuelled by your cruel intentions

Now all the good in me

Has all been consumed

By the bad that I found in you

Your strange parade of love

(Don't you know you keep me up at night?)

You’re never enough

(Baby girl, but there’s no room to fight)

Your strange parade of love

(So tell me your name and tell me you’ll make it right)

You’re never enough

Stuck inside

You taste what’s left of my fear

Now you’ve got what you like

A vulnerable sight

I’ve reached the end of the line

I tell myself it’s only chemical

Your strange parade of love

(Don't you know you keep me up at night?)

You’re never enough

(Baby girl, but there’s no room to fight)

Your strange parade of love

(So tell me your name and tell me you’ll make it right)

You’re never enough

And I will feel the shame that you don’t feel

And I won’t feel the same now this is real

And I will feel the shame that you don’t feel

And I won’t feel the same now this is real

And I will feel the shame that you don’t feel

From this inevitable loss, you found perfection

And I won’t feel the same now this is real

From this deterioration, a human trust of

What makes you a man?

What makes you a man?

How much can you take 'fore it breaks you?

And I will feel the shame that you don’t feel

And I won’t feel the same now this is real

And I will feel the shame that you don’t feel

And I won’t feel the same now this is real
