When A Man Is Not A Man Lyrics

When a man is not a man

He's a liar

And he will talk around the truth a thousand ways

When his motives are unclear

His own children live in fear

Of the pain delivered by the father's hand

There is danger when a man is not a man

When a man is not a man

He hurts his family

Just to prove he has the power and control

He will blacken loving eyes

And sell his kingdom for a lie

And convince himself that no one understands

Only sorrow when a man is not a man

When a man is not a man he's a monster

But the terror comes from weakness not from strength

He's a bully and a fool

And he'll scorch the earth he rules

Causing better men to tremble where they stand

There's no safety when a man is not a man

The face behind the bruises

Is the one he said he loved

There used to be excuses

Until he took off the gloves

Now he might be a lot of things but he's not the man you thought he was...

Now he lives his life afraid

Of his own shadow

So he must block out the light so no ones sees

He loads guns and he builds walls

So he can hide behind them all

There is no greater curse upon the land

Then the damage done when a man is not a man

There is no greater curse upon the land

Then the damage done when a man is not a man
