I need to find a way out
A way out
I just can't find the words to say now
To say now
Still holding my breath, still counting the steps
It takes to get to you, yeah
Not counting the times I crossed the line
And felt judged by you
I'm not bulletproof, yeah
Banging on your door 'til you finally come through
Heart is so dark, can't say what I want to, ooh
What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to
Feeling like I'm heading in the right direction
Always find myself coming back to the question, ooh
What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to you?
I spend my time in the shadows, looking for proof
But I can't open the blinds no matter what I do
I climb the walls, but I fall and blame it all on you
And blame it all on you
Banging on your door 'til you finally come through
Heart is so dark, can't say what I want to, ooh
What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to
Feeling like I'm heading in the right direction
Always find myself coming back to the question, ooh
What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to you?
What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to you?
(What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to you?)
(No, I know I'm not perfect either)
(I just wanna hear your voice right now)
(I swear I'm trying, I'm trying)
(But I still can't)
Banging on your door 'til you finally come through
Heart is so dark, can't say what I want to, oh, ah
'Cause I feel like I'm heading in the wrong direction
Always find myself coming back to the question, ooh
What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to you?
What's a man gotta do, what's a man gotta do to get close to you?
