Failure As a Man
Sometimes I feel so lonely
I no longer want to live
My heart is so full of sadness
Yet I'm such a romantic guy
With so much love to give.
All I ever wanted
Was a wife and children of my own
As a man and human being
I feel such a failure
And I'm so tired of being alone.
Seems it's not enough
To be loving caring funny and kind
I just can't take no more
I'm going out of my mind.
Everywhere Look I see women I can never have
Children that will never call me Dad
Couples together looking so happy
Walking hand in hand
I'm happy for them
But still feel a failure as a human being
And failure as a man.
