Be A Man Lyrics - The Early Widows - Justin Rutledge

I am a fly on the wall of house 

Where the windows are always broken 

I am a pause in a storm on a dark stair 

Whenever your name is spoken 

Be a man about this 

Be the coward or the kiss 

Be a man about this 

Somewhere there is salt 

In the air of a season 

That touches the hem 

Of an island so northern 

Some air is knitting a day for a woman 

Who's eyes are upon the horizon 

Be a man about this 

Be the boredom or the bliss 

Be a man about this 

Be the number or the name 

Be the picture or the frame 

Be the shoulder or the shame 

Be the moth or flame 

I am the birth of a dawn through a curtain 

The hurt of a dawn through a curtain 

Be a man about this 

Be a man about this 

Be a man about this 

Be a man about this
