It was
a little love
a little helplessness
I threw my life away
What kind of man was I?
a person killed me and left me alive
But I gave up on life
there was a person who came and went like a season
but I was not a farmer who could save a dying land
I was not a boat who could sail the storm
I wish everyone could know
that I am open truth
what kind of man was I?
to hold that stranger close to me I had to embrace the crowd
to stop the reminder of the unfaithful
I've had to raise my hands to the mirror
What kind of man was I?
I've had to die
to prove that I was alive
