Modern Men

I've got this weight upon my shoulders feels like a thousand tons

They say be strong don't you break down but the battle's never done

They tell me what I'm supposed to be a hero or a rock

But no one sees the cracks inside the silent ticking clock

It's hard to be a man these days

Walking on the razor's edge

Between the tough and tender ways

Trying not to lose my head

They say don't cry just stand up tall

But inside I'm feeling small

It's hard to be a man these days
