- Leader Of Men Lyrics / with translationsTell your friends not to think aloud
Until they swallow
Whisper things into my brain
Your voice sounds so hollow
I am not a leader of men
Since I prefer to follow
Do you think I could have a drink
Since it's so hard to swallow
So hard to swallow
So turn the television off
and I will sing a song
And if you suddenly have the urge
You can sing along
I touch your hand, I touch your face
I think the fruit is rotten
Give me lessons on how to breath
Cause I think I've forgotten
I think I've forgotten
One day, up to a cliff
That overlooked the water
I jumped in to save a girl
It was somebody's daughter
And now the ring is on my hand
It was given to me by her
To this day we all sit around
And dream of ways to get higher
To get much higher
Until they swallow
Whisper things into my brain
Your voice sounds so hollow
I am not a leader of men
Since I prefer to follow
Do you think I could have a drink
Since it's so hard to swallow
So hard to swallow
So turn the television off
and I will sing a song
And if you suddenly have the urge
You can sing along
I touch your hand, I touch your face
Give me lessons on how to breath
Cause I think I've forgotten
I think I've forgotten
One day, up to a cliff
That overlooked the water
I jumped in to save a girl
It was somebody's daughter
And now the ring is on my hand
It was given to me by her
To this day we all sit around
And dream of ways to get higher
To get much higher

When we take a closer look to the meaning, Nickelback's song 'Leader Of Men' explores a feeling of weakness and uncertainty, where the singer states that he prefers to be a follower instead of a leader. The lyrics reveal lost love, regret, and the hope of fleeing reality through dreaming of getting 'higher' and, thus, that better life. The singer uses metaphorical expressions to highlight his struggles with swallowing his difficulties and having unlearned breathing exercises among the hardest moments he is going through emotionally. Leader of men lyrics mainly bring up introspection, love, memory, pain, and solitude.
