The World Was Made For Men Lyrics
When the world gets dizzy, from spinning around,
Gravity gets tired of holding everything down.
When the foul prick of time's unraveling like twine,
When all roads lead to Rome and there're no words left to rhyme,
We'll make kites from our bones and make shoes from our skin,
And we'll try to pretend that this world was made for men.
Every tree's pressed into money. Everything tastes the same.
Everyone agrees and everything has a name.
When the fish have turned to frogs and the ocean is on clouds.
I remember how you looked walking barefoot through the crowd.
We'll make kites from our bones and make shoes from our skin,
And we'll try to pretend that this world was made for men.
Now nothing's left between us, besides blood and air,
and every last circle has been turned into a square.
There are no cigarettes in the pockets of your vest.
No more hellos or goodbyes, no more secrets to confess.
We'll make caves from our bones and make shoes from our skin
And we'll try to pretend that this world was made for men
Gravity gets tired of holding everything down.
When the foul prick of time's unraveling like twine,
When all roads lead to Rome and there're no words left to rhyme,
And we'll try to pretend that this world was made for men.
Everyone agrees and everything has a name.
When the fish have turned to frogs and the ocean is on clouds.
I remember how you looked walking barefoot through the crowd.
And we'll try to pretend that this world was made for men.
and every last circle has been turned into a square.
There are no cigarettes in the pockets of your vest.
No more hellos or goodbyes, no more secrets to confess.
And we'll try to pretend that this world was made for men

I hear:
"We'll make kites from our bones and make shoes from our skin,"
"When the Fish have turned to frogs. The ocean turns to clouds" (water evaporates into clouds)
