Lyrics
[>>>4\7/0\6§9/8\3/2<<<]
[Intro]
(Man up)
[Build up]
[Verse - sung]
Heavy on the dome, thoughts drown in concrete
Pacing in a small room, mind feel obsolete
Voices in my head, tellin' me to just retreat
Facade on the face, smile painted so neat
[Drop]
[Chorus]
Man up, that's what they tell me, man up
Keep it all inside, just bite your lip and stand up
Man up, play the role, never let them see you breakin' up
Man up, toughen up, hide the scars and just suck it up
(man up)
[Verse 2]
Mars bars in the pocket, but the mood ain't sweet
Eyes glazed over, lost in the cold street
Echoes of laughter, sound like mocking tweets
Trapped in this silence, can’t find my feet
[Chorus]
Man up, that's what they tell me, man up
Keep it all inside, just bite your lip and stand up
Man up, play the role, never let them see you breakin' up
Man up, toughen up, hide the scars and just suck it up
(man up)
[Bridge]
Weight of unspoken words, crushin' like an iron gate
Yearnin' for connection, but the fear make me hesitate
Judgment from the sidelines, cold hearts resonate
Strength in vulnerability, but it's a risk I contemplate
[Verse 3]
Clock ticks loudly, time waits for no man
Feel like a ghost, hands colder than a snowman
Sew my heart shut, it's always the same plan
Dinosaurs in the closet, but I'm no caveman
[Chorus]
Man up, that's what they tell me, man up
Keep it all inside, just bite your lip and stand up
Man up, play the role, never let them see you breakin' up
Man up, toughen up, hide the scars and just suck it up
(man up)
[Refrain]
Struggling just to get out of bed and walk down the street
Eyes glazed over, lost in the endless concrete
Why did I wake up? I would have been happier asleep
I don't know what the point is, may as well admit defeat
[Slow sad instrumental]
[Build]
[Drop Chorus]
Man up, that's what they tell me, man up
Keep it all inside, just bite your lip and stand up
Man up, play the role, never let them see you breakin' up
Man up, toughen up, hide the scars and just suck it up
(man up)
[Bridge]
Weight of unspoken words, crushin' like an iron gate
Yearnin' for connection, but the fear make me hesitate
Judgment from the sidelines, cold hearts resonate
Strength in vulnerability, but it's a risk I contemplate
[Verse 3]
Clock ticks loudly, time waits for no man
Feel like a ghost, hands colder than a snowman
Sew my heart shut, it's always the same plan
Dinosaurs in the closet, but I'm no caveman
[Chorus]
Man up, that's what they tell me, man up
Keep it all inside, just bite your lip and stand up
Man up, play the role, never let them see you breakin' up
Man up, toughen up, hide the scars and just suck it up
(man up)
[Epic extended instrumental & guitar solo]
[Final Chorus breakdown]
I don't need to man up, like they tell me, man up
Won't k eep it all inside, just bite my lip and stand up
Man up, play the role, never let them see you breakin' up
Man up, toughen up, hide the scars and just suck it up
(No need to man up)
[Outro]
