[00:11.560] Now I don't wanna hate you
[00:12.820] Just wish you'd never gone for the man
[00:14.960] And waited two weeks at least
[00:16.490] Before you let him take you
[00:17.770] I stayed true
[00:18.410] I kind of knew you liked the dude from private school
[00:20.440] He's waiting for the time to move
[00:21.770] I knew he had his eyes on you
[00:23.160] He's not the right guy for you
[00:24.410] Don't hate me cos I write the truth
[00:25.900] No I would never lie to you
[00:27.090] But it was never fine to lose you
[00:28.890] And what a way to find out
[00:30.290] It never came from my mouth
[00:31.730] You never changed your mind
[00:32.930] But you were just afraid to mind out
[00:34.450] But it, I won't be changing the subject I love it
[00:36.970] I'll make your little secret public its nothing
[00:39.150] I'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep with in your closet to get back at me
[00:43.270] Trapped and I'm lacking sleep
[00:44.630] Fact is you're mad at me because I backtrack so casually
[00:47.720] You're practically my family
[00:48.990] If we married then I'll guess you'd have to be
[00:50.370] But tragically our love just lost the will to live
[00:53.060] But would I kill to give it one more shot
[00:54.530] I think not
[00:55.510]
[00:55.680] I don't love you baby
[00:58.070] I don't need you baby
[01:00.840] I don't want you no
[01:03.310] Anymore
[01:05.290]
[01:06.210] I don't love you baby
[01:08.950] I don't need you baby
[01:11.640] I don't wanna love you no
[01:14.460] Anymore
[01:16.170]
[01:17.100] Recently I tend to zone out
[01:18.390] Up in my headphones to Holocene
[01:20.450] You promised your body but I'm away so much
[01:21.960] I stay more celibate than in a monastery
[01:24.100] Im not cut out for life on the road
[01:25.690] Cos I didn't know I'd miss you this much
[01:28.110] And at the time we'd just go, so sue me
[01:29.810] I guess I'm not the man that you need
[01:31.790] Ever since you went to uni
[01:32.900] I've been sofa surfing with a rucksack
[01:34.380] Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad
[01:36.900] But when I broke the industry
[01:38.480] That's when I broke your heart
[01:39.770] I was supposed to chart and celebrate
[01:41.190] But good things are over fast
[01:42.750] I know it's hard to deal with and see this
[01:44.580] I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features
[01:47.190] Then I turn the music off
[01:48.610] And all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus
[01:51.750] I never really want to believe this
[01:53.560] Got advice from my dad and he
[01:54.760] Told me that family is all I'll ever have and need
[01:56.940] I guess I'm unaware of it
[01:59.150] Success is nothing if you have no one left to share it with
[02:01.340]
[02:01.540] I don't love you baby
[02:03.890] I don't need you baby
[02:07.030] I don't want you no
[02:09.350] Anymore
[02:11.160]
[02:12.010] I don't love you baby
[02:14.810] I don't need you baby
[02:17.500] I don't wanna love you no
[02:20.280] Anymore
[02:22.260]
[02:22.950] And since you left
[02:23.680] I've given up my days off
[02:24.940] It's what I need to stay strong
[02:26.280] I know you have a day job
[02:27.560] But mine is 24/7
[02:28.970] I fell like writing a book
[02:30.190] I guess I lied in the hook
[02:31.490] Cos I still love you and I need you by my side if I could
[02:34.280] The irony is if my career and music didn't exist
[02:37.060] In 6 years yeah you'd probably be my wife with a kid
[02:39.780] I'm frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink
[02:42.620] And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and its
[02:45.260] Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to kill
[02:48.040] And I'd be writing my will before I'm 27
[02:50.490] I'll die from a thrill
[02:51.600] Go down in history as just a wasted talent
[02:53.780] Can I face the challenge
[02:55.280] Or did I make a mistake erasing
[02:57.120] It's only therapy
[02:58.150] My thoughts just get ahead of me
[02:59.400] Eventually I'll be fine I know that it was never meant to be
[03:02.270] Either way I guess I'm not prepared
[03:04.360] But I'll say this
[03:05.390] These things happen for a reason and you can't change
[03:08.090] Take my apology
[03:09.070] I'm sorry for the honesty
[03:10.350] But I had to get this off my chest
[03:11.860]
[03:12.520] I don't love you baby
[03:15.100] I don't need you baby
[03:17.810] I don't want you no
[03:20.550] Anymore
[03:22.270]
[03:23.420] I don't love you baby
[03:25.890] I don't need you baby
[03:28.800] I don't wanna love you no
[03:31.490] Anymore
[03:33.540]
