What it Takes

[Verse 1]
I've been taking my time
Finding nothing at all
Flying the flag that I'm fine
Trying to climb up a ninety-foot wall

You held hands that would shake
Kissed eyes blind to it all
You showed me just what it takes
To keep a man, to keep a man

[Chorus]
From falling down
Sliding backward
Faced to the ground
Frozen and fractured

[Verse 2]
Shiny tower of pain
Built with great sleight of hand
Too proud to walk with a cane
But can't be bothered to stand

Oh, you change the game here
Your kiss ignited a flame
That keeps a man, that keeps a man

[Chorus]
From falling down
Sliding backward
Faced to the ground
Frozen and fractured
Frozen and fractured
Frozen and fractured
Frozen and fractured

{Versе 3]
Ooh

Show me just what it takes
Just what it takes
Just what it takеs
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Show me just what it takes
Just what it takes
Just what it takes
Ooh

Another dawn, another day, another death
A fight to find another way to take a breath
And though I shake and shout and doubt the best I can
You show me what it takes to be a better man

Be a better man
Be a better man
Be a better man
Come keep your man, come keep your man

[Chorus]
From falling down
Sliding backward (Be a better man, be a better man)
Faced to the ground
Frozen and fractured (Be a better man, be a better man)

Falling down
Sliding backward (Be a better man, be a better man)
Faced to the ground
Frozen and fractured (Be a better man, be a better man)

Frozen and fractured (Be a better man, be a better man)
Frozen and fractured (Be a better man, be a better man)
Frozen and fractured (Be a better man, be a better man)
Frozen and fractured (Be a better man, be a better man)
Frozen and fractured (Be a better man, be a better man)
