Ben J. Pierce - Boys Will Be Boys lyrics

I'm so tired of your illusions Rules never change And my mind is so abusive Taking on the shapes When it comes to your love, is it unconditional? When it comes to my love, anything is fixable And all these noises so relentless I need a second to breathe Cause if boys will be boys We do the best that we can Cover for our brothers while we suffer from our own hands Boys will be boys, that's the way that this thing goes When mothers lose their sons And their fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go When mothers lose their sons And fathers watch them go I'm no longer taking lessons from those who broke before Now that I am done confessing the words have left me sore When you feel the restless pain As it crawls out of your heart And the thoughts of yesterday Bring you to where you are All these voices that once controlled me can't contain me here Cause if boys will be boys And we do the best that we can Cover for our brothers while we suffer from our own hands Boys will be boys, that's the way that this thing goes When mothers lose their sons And their fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go When mothers lose their sons And fathers watch them go Tell me how it feels to win it Has it gone according to your plan? Do you wish that you'd forget it or? Or do you feel less like a human? Ooh if boys don't cry not a man am I Not a day goes by that I've had to lie Who I was before Since I closed that door And it's all white noise That boys must be boys Cause if boys will be boys And we do the best that we can Cover for our brothers while we suffer from our own hands Boys will be boys, that's the way that this thing goes When mothers lose their sons And their fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go When mothers lose their sons And fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go Fathers watch them go When mothers lose their sons And fathers watch them go
