Lyrics

In the hearts of men In the arms of mothers In the parts we play to convince others We know what we're doing We're doing it right May have written books on the subject But then you may still be surprised By your tone over the phone To your sister while waiting in line At the shopping mall just outside a town In the hands of teachers In the books you read The things you say when we're lost the lead I still try to speak up but my voice won't make a sound And I thought it all over too many times But when there is no use And the lights are all out I just give it up and I walk home Past the shopping mall That's just closing down Will you tell yourself, You all must be what you'll be Who's to say who is who and what is what If you simply don't agree Now, time will come to claim you And it will have its way Don't make mistakes and don't regret Don't waste the time that is left And then do it all with a goddamn smile In the hearts of men In the arms of mothers In the parts we play to convince others
