The Protomen - Beards Going Nowhere lyrics
[The Protomen - Beards Going Nowhere lyrics]
In this city you hold on
As tightly as you can
You don't take anything for truth
It's like walking on the razor's edge
And everything around you is crumbling, girl
You only have to look around for proof
When I was younger, things were different
When a man was allowed to be a man
But, I grew up too fast
Like I was racing with the devil
I've felt the blade so many times
Emily girl, won't you take my hand
And we'll ride
Across the barren face of this desert road
You set my wheels on fire
I'll rev my engine till the
Sound is just deafening emily girl, I swear
We'll make it out of this wasteland
I know you worry the way that
Things are gonna turn out
It seems this city doesn't love
The man with a beard
They say a man has to give up
The very thing he loves here
But, I will not live like that
No, I will not live in fear
And I will not let them take it from me
No matter how hard they'll try most men
When they have a knife to their chin
They'd rather give up than die
So many faces bare so many faces so cold
Just hold on to me we can weather the night
Behind my whiskers girl
We can get out of town before
We both get too old
And we'll ride
And when the engine gives out we won't worry
We know how we'll get by
We'll catch the wind with the
Hairs on my chin
And then we'll take to the sky
We'll say hello to the angels in heaven
(Sup Girl) and then we'll pass heaven by
We've got better things to do with our lives
Than shave our faces and die
Don't give up don't give in
Without a beard you will never win
But girl Its time for me to go
Where only a man can go
My heart is on fire and if I don't feed
It fast it'll just burn up and fade
I love you girl, you've got to know that
You'll be so proud of me
You'll watch me hop on my pegasus, girl
10, 000 angels singing for me
As I ride my pegasus
Through the city, to the edge of the city
And then out of the city and into the fields
Fields thick and strong like the
Beard that I'll grow
You'll watch as I ride through the night
You'll see
I'll set the night on fire with my
Burning heart and my glorious man-beard
And everyone will love me and
I'll finally be a man i'll finally be a man
As tightly as you can
You don't take anything for truth
It's like walking on the razor's edge
And everything around you is crumbling, girl
You only have to look around for proof
When I was younger, things were different
When a man was allowed to be a man
But, I grew up too fast
Like I was racing with the devil
I've felt the blade so many times
Emily girl, won't you take my hand
And we'll ride
Across the barren face of this desert road
You set my wheels on fire
I'll rev my engine till the
Sound is just deafening emily girl, I swear
We'll make it out of this wasteland
I know you worry the way that
Things are gonna turn out
It seems this city doesn't love
The man with a beard

The very thing he loves here
But, I will not live like that
No, I will not live in fear
And I will not let them take it from me
No matter how hard they'll try most men
When they have a knife to their chin
They'd rather give up than die
So many faces bare so many faces so cold
Just hold on to me we can weather the night
