GTake a look around you, Ghow much longer can Dyou live this Gway
Ctrash on the Gfloor, fCrom weeks Gbefore, jCust gets dGeeper by the daDy,
Emcant let go of that fDoolish pride, yGou keep it lCocked up in-Amside
Gtime to face the pain, sCtand up and Dcry like a Gman
GThere's no one left to blame now, sGhe had her reason why sDhe had to Ggo
Cthe feelings you hGid, the lCove you couldn't gGive, kCept her from tGouchin your Dsoul.
Emyou got to break down that fDortress inside, aGnd surrender to the tCears in your Ameyes,
Gyou'll never be free agaCin, til you Dcry like a Gman
EmTheres no shame in letting Cteardrops Gfall,its a Cgood thing it'll be alrigGht
Ema little rain can make the Gtrees Emgrow tCall, you've got to be stCrong,
so stGand up and cDry like a mGan
GYou know shes gone for good now,yGour love is torn bDeyond repGair
Ctheres not a Gtrace of a tCear on your fGace, tChere ought to Gbe some thDere
Emthose deep emotions you keDep in the dark,if yGou dont let them out there goin to tCear up your heAmart
Gyou'll never be free agaCin til you cDry like a mGan
So StCand Up and CDry Like a MGan
