man i need 5

Verse 1

Found

Empty pockets

Turning my jeans inside out

Lint and a little bit of bad luck

Left my pride

Back at the station

Where I waited

Too long

For a train that never showed up

Chorus

Man I need

Man I need

Man I need some sugar in my water

Something sweet

To stop the heat

Man I need a little bit of mercy

Just a little bit of mercy

Just a little bit of mercy

Post-Chorus

Mm mm

Need it

I really need it

Need it

Verse 2

Heavy

Walking heavy

Dragging my heels across the porch

Soles are getting thin

Barely holding

On to the wooden planks

Underneath me

Splitter

Splintered

Small silver slivers in my skin

Hurts to move

Hurts to breathe

I think I forgot how to win

Chorus

Man I need

Man I need

Man I need some sugar in my water

Something sweet

To stop the heat

Man I need a little bit of mercy

Just a little bit of mercy

Just a little bit of mercy

Bridge

Maybe it's the season

Maybe it's the rain

Maybe it's the reason

I'm feeling all this pain

I looked up

I reached out

I stepped back

Chorus

Man I need

Man I need

Man I need some sugar in my water

Something sweet

To stop the heat

Man I need a little bit of mercy

Just a little bit of mercy

Just a little bit of mercy

Outro

Need a little mercy

Mercy

Mercy

Need a little more sugar

Sweetness

Finally

Finally

Finally
