 Lyrics: 
 My words don't know the truthThey flutter as I speak
 The sickness I feel under my belt
 Is the disdain I have for me
 I've asked you to stand tall
 But it's me who's fallen down
 A better man I'd like to be
 But I can't find my way home now
 
 So what kind of man am I?
 Who never looked up to see the sky
 And every word I say
 Has come back to haunt me every day
 So here I stand alone
 Crippled on my cane
 The coward I've become
 The loser in the game
 
 These eyes you see are masked
 By a thin veneer of tears
 And who would have known that such a small task
 Would have compromised all these years
 'Cause a liar's guilt is a liar's fate
 And man, that's just the facts
 For those too weak to tell the truth
 Into darkness you'll be cast
 
 So what kind of man am I?
 Who never looked up to see the sky
 And every word I say
 Has come back to haunt me every day
 And here I stand alone
 Crippled on my cane
 The coward I've become
 The loser in the game
 
 Angels are flying with you tonight
 You'd better not let them go
 'Cause if you do I'd hate to think
 Of what your fate could be
 Speak your mind, tell what you know
 And set your soul free
 
 So what kind of man am I?
 Who never looked up to see the sky
 'Speak your heart'... Here I stand alone
 Crippled on my cane
 The coward I've become
 'Set us free'... The loser in the game
