About

In “Man,” frontman Matt Thiessen paints a desperate picture of time slipping away from him, growing up too fast, and leaving his childhood behind. Musically, the track subtly speeds up as it progresses, simulating time moving faster.

Matt revealed in a 2016 interview that it is a continuation of t...

Man Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I spent the last six years
Like Hoffman in a swimming pool, and I've
Been lost at sea inside a house off Driftwood Avenue, and I
I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh
The clock is ticking faster now
And I'm too old to be growing up

[Verse 2]
Goodbye to heartache, that's the only southern part of me
I pack some boxes in the basement and move down the street, and I
I'll leave the pirate ships to kids who don't know anything, oh
I'll be every bit the person we both already know I'll be

[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
It's time to be a man

[Post-Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
Don't say goodnight
Don't take your life
Wake up, wake up

[Verse 3]
I had another nightmare, baby, won't you comfort me?
Been lost at sea inside a house off Beachwood Avenue, and I
I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh
The clock is ticking faster now
The clock is ticking faster now

[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
Wake up, wake up (Don't close your eyes, don't say good night)
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't disappear, don't not be here)
Wake up, wake up
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
It's time to be a man

[Post-Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
Don't say goodnight
Don't disappear
Don't not be here
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)

[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't close your eyes)
Wake up, wake up (Don't say good night)
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't disappear)
Wake up, wake up
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
I'll be every bit the person we both already know I can
It's time to be a man

[Outro]
I used to see all of the world in positivity (Don't close your eyes, don't disappear)
Been lost at sea inside a house off Driftwood Avenue (Don't say goodnight, don't not be here)
I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me (Don't take your life, don't live in fear)
The clock is ticking faster now (Wake up, wake up)
The clock is ticking faster now

That one, I don’t know what it’s about. It was supposed to be somewhat of a continuation of the last song on Forget and Not Slow Down, called ‘(If You Want It).’ There’s some sort of tie in there, with pirate ships and Peter Pan and all that stuff. But yeah, that was one of the first ones I wrote fo...
