"Man" lyrics

"Man"

It's nice that I got a couple things from you
A lot of wiggle room
With prescription Adderall
It's nice what I got
I didn't get deposed
And now I suppose that I needed the world from just one man
I needed a lot from you

I got a lot of free rein
And cocaine
And pretty clothes
And shifty goals
But I needed the world from you
The world, I needed a lot from you

It's nice what you said
But it didn't carry weight
It always stayed the same
With spinning bedroom walls
And I did the math
And you had better plans
You had waiting cabs
I needed the world from just one man
I needed a lot from just one, just one, just one man

I didn't want indifference, I wanted a medal
It started with a choke, and you called me the kettle
For getting upset
And getting aggressive
But he was twenty-eight and off of the handle
I was a kid wanting to cancel
Instead of unfolding
And bringing home a man

I got a lot of free rein
And ashamed
And pretty clothes
And shifty goals
But I needed the world from you
The world, I needed a lot from you
A lot from just one man
I needed a lot from just one, just one, just one man
I needed a lot from you, a lot from you
