Ed Sheeran - The Man Lyrics
Just wish you'd never gone for the manAnd waited two weeks at leastBefore you let him take you, I stayed trueI kind of knew you liked the dude from private schoolHe's waiting for the time to move, I knew he had his eyes on youHe's not the right guy for youDon't hate me cos I write the truth, no I would never lie to youBut it was never fine to lose you and what a way to find outIt never came from my mouth you never changed your mindBut you were just afraid to find outBut f- it, I won't be changing the subject I love itI'll make your little secret public its 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 family if 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 shot I think notI 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 noAnymoreRecently 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 monasteryIm not cut out for life on the roadCos 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 left to share it withI 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 noAnymoreAnd since you leftI've given up my days offIt's what I need to stay strongI know you have a day jobBut mine is 24/7I fell like writing a bookI guess I lied in the hookCos 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 itsJust hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to killAnd I'd be writing my will before I'm 27I'll die from a thrillGo down in history as just a wasted talentCan I face the challengeOr did I make a mistake erasingIt's only therapyMy 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 preparedBut I'll say thisThese things happen for a reason and you can't changeTake my apologyI'm sorry for the honestyBut I had to get this off my chestI 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
