The Man |
Now I don’t wanna hate you |
Just wish you’d never gone for the man |
And waited two weeks at least |
Before you let him take you |
I stayed true, I kind of knew |
You liked the dude from private school |
He’s waiting for the time to move |
I knew he had his eyes on you |
He’s not the right guy for you |
Don’t hate me 'cause I write the truth |
No, I would never lie to you |
But it was never fine to lose you |
And what a way to find out |
It never came from my mouth |
You never changed your mind |
But you were just afraid to mind out |
But it |
I won’t be changing the subject, I love it |
I’ll make your little secret public |
It’s nothing, I’m just disgusted with the skeletons |
You sleep with in your closet to get back at me |
Trapped and I’m lacking sleep |
Fact is you’re mad at me |
Because I backtrack so casually |
You’re practically my family |
If we married then I’ll guess you’d have to be |
But tragically our love just lost the will to live |
But would I kill to give it one more shot? |
I think not |
I don’t love you baby |
I don’t need you baby |
I don’t want you no |
Anymore |
I don’t love you baby |
I don’t need you baby |
I don’t wanna love you no |
Anymore |
Recently I tend to zone out |
Up in my headphones to Holocene |
You promised your body but I’m away so much |
I stay more celibate than in a monastery |
I’m not cut out for life on the road |
'Cause I didn’t know I’d miss you this much |
And at the time we’d just go, so sue me |
I guess I’m not the man that you need |
Ever since you went to uni |
I’ve been sofa surfing with a rucksack |
Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad |
But when I broke the industry |
That’s when I broke your heart |
I was supposed to chart and celebrate |
But good things are over fast |
I know it’s hard to deal with and see this |
I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features |
Then I turn the music off |
And all I’m left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus |
I never really want to believe this |
Got advice from my dad and he |
Told me that family is all I’ll ever have and need |
I guess I’m unaware of it |
Success is nothing if you have no one there left to share it with |
I don’t love you baby |
I don’t need you baby |
I don’t want you no |
Anymore |
I don’t love you baby |
I don’t need you baby |
I don’t wanna love you no |
Anymore |
And since you left, I’ve given up my days off |
It’s what I need to stay strong |
I know you have a day job but mine is 24/7 |
I feel like writing a book, I guess I lied in the hook |
'Cause I still love you and I need you by my side if I could |
The irony is if my career in music didn’t exist |
In 6 years, yeah, you’d probably be my wife with a kid |
I’m frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink |
And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and it’s |
Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I’m trying to kill |
And I’d be writing my will before I’m 27, I’ll die from a thrill |
Go down in history as just a wasted talent |
Can I face the challenge, or did I make a mistake erasing? |
It’s only therapy, my thoughts just get ahead of me |
Eventually I’ll be fine I know that it was never meant to be |
Either way I guess I’m not prepared, but I’ll say this |
These things happen for a reason and you can’t change |
Take my apology, I’m sorry for the honesty |
But I had to get this off my chest |
I don’t love you baby |
I don’t need you baby |
I don’t want you no |
Anymore |
I don’t love you baby |
I don’t need you baby |
I don’t wanna love you no |
Anymore |
