The Man

You say you miss me, but that means something so different to you
You say you want me, but you only want another excuse
To say you got me ‘cause you get high on the thought that you do
You love to think that you’re the man, boy it’s not working for you

Except on any day that ends with y
I'm telling everyone that it’s nothing
But I'm like oh my God, I might die
From wonderin’

Why I never listen
Why I over-romanticize
Why I'm holding onto a version of you I made up
I designed

You say you miss me, but that means something so different to you
You say you want me, but you only want another excuse
To say you got me ‘cause you get high on the thought that you do
You love to think that you’re the man, boy it’s not working for you

Honestly, I don’t care
You’ve made every mistake
Is it your cold indifference
That makes me feel this way
Or your dirty blonde hair
How you’re pulling me close
Man, I really dropped the bar
Down, low, low, low low

Lay me down with reasons
That I’ve over-romanticized
‘Cause I'm holding onto a version of you I made up
I designed

You say you miss me, but that means something so different to you
You say you want me, but you only want another excuse
To say you got me ‘cause you get high on the thought that you do
You love to think that you’re the man, boy it’s not working for you

I know you don’t want me
In the way that I want you
When you say that you need me
You just want me to want you
I know you don’t want me
In the way that I want you
When you said that you need me
You just want me to want you

You say you miss me, but that means something so different to you
You say you want me, but you only want another excuse
To say you got me ‘cause you get high on the thought that you do
You love to think that you’re the man, boy it’s not working for you
