The Man
Now I don't wanna hate youJust wish you'd never gone for the manAnd waited two weeks at leastBefore you let him take youI stayed trueI kind of knew you liked the dude from private schoolHe's waiting for the time to moveI knew he had his eyes on youHe's not the right guy for youDon't hate me cause I write the truthNo I would never lie to youBut it was never fine to lose youAnd what a way to find outIt never came from my mouthYou never changed your mindBut you were just afraid to mind outBut fuck it, I won't be changing the subject I love itI'll make your little secret public it's nothingI'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep with in your closet to get back at meTrapped and I'm lacking sleepFact is you're mad at me because I backtrack so casuallyYou're practically my familyIf we married then I'll guess you'd have to beBut tragically our love just lost the will to liveBut would I kill to give it one more shotI think not
I don't love you babyI don't need you babyI don't want you noAnymoreI don't love you babyI don't need you babyI don't wanna love you noAnymore
Recently I tend to zone outUp in my headphones to HoloceneYou promised your body but I'm away so muchI stay more celibate than in a monasteryI'm not cut out for life on the roadCause I didn't know I'd miss you this muchAnd at the time we'd just go, so sue meI guess I'm not the man that you needEver since you went to uniI've been sofa surfing with a rucksackFull of less cash and I guess that could get badBut when I broke the industryThat's when I broke your heartI was supposed to chart and celebrateBut good things are over fastI know it's hard to deal with and see thisI tend to turn you off and switch on my professional featuresThen I turn the music offAnd all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces, JesusI never really want to believe thisGot advice from my dad and heTold me that family is all I'll ever have and needI guess I'm unaware of itSuccess is nothing if you have no one there left to share it with
I don't love you babyI don't need you babyI don't want you noAnymoreI don't love you babyI don't need you babyI don't wanna love you noAnymore
And since you left, I've given up my days offIt's what I need to stay strongI know you have a day job but mine is 24/7I feel like writing a book, I guess I lied in the hookCause I still love you and I need you by my side if I couldThe irony is if my career and music didn't existIn 6 years, yeah, you'd probably be my wife with a kidI'm frightened to think if I depend on cider and drinkAnd lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and it'sJust hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to killAnd I'd be writing my will before I'm 27, I'll die from a thrillGo down in history as just a wasted talentCan I face the challenge, or did I make a mistake erasing?It's only therapy, my thoughts just get ahead of meEventually I'll be fine I know that it was never meant to beEither way I guess I'm not prepared, but I'll say thisThese things happen for a reason and you can't change shitTake my apology, I'm sorry for the honestyBut I had to get this off my chest
I don't love you babyI don't need you babyI don't want you noAnymoreI don't love you babyI don't need you babyI don't wanna love you noAnymore
