The Man Lyrics by The Backfires

Consider the Backfires - EP

2021

[Verse]
You wanna get lost tonight
In someone else's heart
Maybe we should stay inside
I don't wanna split apart

[Pre-Chorus]
Because every time that I trust you
We end up in Zone 2
Hoping there's a night tube
To make our escape
Every time that I trust you
We end up on barstools
And our mind flies away

[Chorus]
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down

[Verse]
I'll take two for five
And forget the past week or so
Guess we're getting lost tonight
With somе girl caked in gold

[Pre-Chorus]
Because еvery time that I trust you
We end up in Zone 2
Hoping there's a night tube
To make our escape
Every time that I trust you
We end up on barstools
And our mind flies away

[Chorus]
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down

[Bridge]
When I look in my own eyes
I try to recognize
The man in front of me
And all he's ever seen
When I learn that all the highs
Are what's keeping him alive
The man in front of me
Isn't all he seems to be

[Chorus]
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down
I don't wanna come down
From this one man ghost-town
I don't wanna come down
