I'm Your Man
The Denims Lyrics

Like the brutal morning sun
Just like the harsh brightness of the sun that awakens one in the morning, a realization is finally setting in.

It dawns on me, what have I done?
I am starting to acknowledge the gravity of my actions.

Saying sorry ain't as good as saying why
It's not enough to just apologize; a genuine reason for my mistakes needs to be expressed.

But it buys me a little more time
Although a reason doesn't fix everything, it can grant me a bit more time to sort things out.

Lost in the moment for the second time
Once again, I'm overwhelmed and consumed by this feeling.

Each fucking doubt I make, unleash a cry
Every single uncertainty leads to an outpouring of emotions and tears.

I'm just pathetic, that's the reason why
I am feeling miserable and weak, and that's why I can't stop crying.

In desperation, all that you can do is ask me why
When all else fails and things are hopeless, the only thing you can do is question me why I acted this way.

'Cause I'm a man, woman
I am a human being, just like anyone else.

Don't always think before I do
I don't always carefully consider the consequences of my actions.

'Cause I'm a man, woman
Being a man is the only explanation I can offer for my behavior.

That's the only answer I've got for you
I'm sorry, but there is no other response I can offer.

'Cause I'm a man, woman
Again, I reiterate that I am only human.

Not often proud of what I choose
I know that I don't always make the best decisions and I'm not always proud of them.

I'm a human, woman
I am not immune to mistakes and have my own weaknesses and faults.

A greater force I answer to
I am responsible to a higher power or level of morality.

Once again, as it takes a hold
I am once again falling prey to my weakness or mistake.

I am aware I'm not in control
I am realizing that I am not fully in charge of the situation.

You see, I have a conscience and it's never fooled
I have a moral compass and know right from wrong, but sometimes still make the wrong choice.

But it's prone to be overruled
However, my conscience can also be overridden by my own desires and emotions.

You wanna know why I always think I'm right?
Would you like to know why I always believe that I am correct?

(Why?)
-

Can never accept defeat and let it slide
I can't handle the thought of being wrong and often can't let things go when I'm proven incorrect.

(Why?)
-

I have no voice if I don't speak my mind
If I keep my thoughts and opinions to myself, I feel like I have lost my power or say in the situation.

(Why?)
-

My weakness is the source of all my pride
Ironically, my faults and weaknesses are often what make me feel powerful and proud.

I'll tell you why
I will now explain the reasoning behind my behavior.

I'll never be as strong as you
I recognize that you are stronger in some ways and have capabilities that I don't possess.

I'm a human, human
I am simply a human being.

A greater force I answer to
I am responsible to a higher power or level of morality.
