A New Man

Look at you, the sorry state you're in
 A man without a country or a friend
 A man who can't remember how his blood would shake in boyhood
 To the rhythm of the wheat fields in the wind
 Stung by those old lies you told yourself
 Strung with that same rope you sold yourself
 Either you can't hear the bells or you can't tell for whom they toll
 And still, they toll
 It's time to go
 Make a habit of erasing every track
 No trace of love behind to mark your path
 Teaching everyone a lesson thought your heart was worth the hold
 And that it's not
 Is that what you want?
 You must become a new man
 Must become a new man
 Must become a new man
 Change
 You felt the storm clouds building in your bones
 Tornados spun for you and you alone
 And then wrapped themselves around you in the rain and whipping wind
 And slip your skin
 Begin again
 You'll find there's only love and love's returning
 And you'll finally know the warmth of home fires burning
 And the green hills will be waving with abandon
 The road unrolled before you like an anthem
 In every strangers face, a place of welcome
 No matter who you are or where you came from
 You won't walk among the dead a moment longer
 You won't belong there
 You will be a new man
 You will be a new man
 You will be a new man
 Change
 You will be a new man
 You will be a new man
 You will be a new man
 Change
 You will be a new man
 You will be a new man
 You will be a new man
 Change
