You said I was free to do what I wanted
I believed you, I received you, I did
You stood above me watchin' my words then cut them down
No one noticed, no one protests, silent menace

Take your hands from my shoulders and let me stand
I've been tryin' my hardest to be a man

Your focused fingers form a force to reckon with
They point with power and command callousness
Your eyes can switch with every glance
And when they catch me there's no chance
Medusa, Medusa

Take your hands from my shoulders and let me stand
I've been tryin' my hardest to be a man
Take your hands off my shoulders and let me stand
I've been tryin' my hardest to be a man

I'm a liar, a bully, a coward, a thief
I'm a liar, a bully, a coward, a thief

My skin is crawlin', my confidence fallin'
My skin is crawlin', my confidence fallin'
My skin is crawlin', my confidence fallin'
My skin is crawlin', my confidence

Take your hands from my shoulders and let me stand
I've been tryin' my hardest to be a man
Take your hands off my shoulders and let me stand
I've been tryin' my hardest to be a man
