The Man Lyrics - X - Ed Sheeran

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 find out 

But fuck 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 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 fell 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 and 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 shit 

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
