Lyrics
Please don't pull your martyrs cross
Does it matter who's won or lost
I don't cower at defeat
And I don't cry because I'm weak
I'm a man and I'm free
I don't ask you to be me
I can't wear that ball or chain
I'm not something to be trained
I won't play these childish games
Guess we don't see things quite the same
Please don't treat me like a tool
And I will never play the fool
I'm a man and I'm free
I don't ask you to be me
I can't wear that ball or chain
I'm not something to be trained
I just hoped you'd understand
I just want to be your man
Love shouldn't have to be so hard
Said did I catch you off your guard
Please put away your martyr's cross
I don't care if I've won or lost
But I don't want to scream and fight
Can we just sleep on it tonight
I'm a man and I'm free
I don't ask you to be me
I can't wear that ball or chain
I'm not something to be trained
I just hoped you'd understand
I just want to be your man
Love shouldn't have to be so hard
Said did I catch you off your guard
