What Makes A Man

(album: Shorelines - 2014)

Calmness
Four shapes of blue coruscartion in her eyes

Now we're standing here at the cliff's edge
Hand in hand
As we are waiting for the tide to come

Oh I've finally found the reason to be

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But I have heart

Where the lights blend out of frame
All the shadows become a name
Where the forest lies in a hollow trail of flames
Who could ever resist her?
Her flesh is honey and milk
Candy has never been so sweet my dear

What I have always wanted is here in my hand

Where the clocks are made of sand
All the demons inside sleep in defence
Where the forest lies in a hollow flush of innocence
You are the eve of the unknown
Tell me what makes me a man
And I will write down your words and read you in every line

What I have always wanted is here in my hand
What I have always fought for now lies in front of me

It's the ghost that leads the most
Never take him for granted he's the host
The book is read
Your voice is an echo in my head
Only one question is left: what makes a man?

What makes a man?

What I have always wanted is here in my hand
What I have always fought for now lies in front of me

What I have always wanted is here in my hand
What I have always fought for now lies in front of me
