[Verse 1]
Grease, sweat, coffee, faded shipyard pictures
Giant living there I used to know
Author of the testosterone scriptures
Where did you go?

[Verse 2]
Now I remember what he told me that time
Falling from my bike, scraping my knee
"If you're gonna weep, keep it from the sunshine
So no one sees"

[Chorus]
I won't cry
"Above all things, boy, be a man"
I won't cry
"Above all things, boy, be a man"

[Verse 3]
See little boy hiding amongst shadows
Ashamed of tears exposing ancient pain
From the storms predicted by the tarot
Pray for the rain

[Chorus]
I won't cry
"Above all things, boy, be a man"
I won't cry
"Above all things, boy, be a man"
