No Man

(Album: Messy - 2023)

I've been on a tightrope, walking
Never had a fear of falling
Now every step is more unsteady
I've never been so far from solid ground

I thought I saw you there to catch me
But now I look again, you're out of reach
There's nothing
No hands
No man for me

Tryna love across a minefield
Everywhere I look is no man's land
If you take a step then I will
It's harder when you don't know where you stand

I thought that you'd be there to meet me
But now I look again, you're out of reach
There's nothing
No hands
No man for me

But God, I was hoping
Hoping you might just have enough
It's not like I'm broken
So what is it you're so scared to touch?
Why you always giving up?

Every time I think we're somewhere
Close to conversation, it's the same
You'd rather be alone and out there
And let me love a stranger with your name

Why can't you be better for me?
How can I be seen when all I see
Is nothing
No hands
No man for me
Singing
Nothing
No hands
No man for me

I know it takes time to heal
You never had no man for real
I know it takes time to heal
You never had no man for real
