Lyrics
Bring down I need you with me
My love for a hundred miles an hour
No change I take you with me
We have the color power
We used to be the fire
Now we need to be the one
I push down this self destruction
Find ways to poison all of the beauty
Loose brains have no mercy
I want a little mercy with you
Honky
Honky Manchild
Honky
Honky Manchild
I reach down to steal the water
Don’t have too many others to blame
Came there and left with myself
One way on a nowhere train
Honky
Honky Manchild
Honky
Honky Manchild
I, I am uglier than you
Simple clouds that I hang over you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Easy to turn to others
Fresh face that some have never heard
Real love is hard to conquer
This love the best to fake
Honky
Honky Manchild
Honky
Honky Manchild
Tick Tick
Honky Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Honky Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Honky Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Yeah
Honky Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Honky Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
Manchild
