Don't Wanna Be Here lyrics

Shut up; you don't have to say anything.

It was my fault, my fault all along.

I dig in my heels and I can't let it go.

I just feel like this city's not my home.

My heart is a cage.

And my bones feel so strange.

Do I have to break down to break through?

Get lost to get where I need to.

Is this really what I agreed to?

Right now, nothing's clear.

And I just know I don't want to be here.

And I just know I don't want to be here.

I said: I'm staring at you.

Well now, you know how I feel.

Shaking, I'm shaking like salt.

If I'm stable as a stick.

I'll die now I might.

I'm sorry if I sometimes go off.

The streets are quicksand.

I would stay, but I can't.

Do I have to break down to break through?

Get lost to get where I need to.

Is this really what I agreed to?

Right now, nothing's clear.

And I just know I don't want to be here.

[vocalizing]

I'll come back; I will return.

A better firend, no tremors.

No tidalwaves, then...

Do I have to break down to break through?

Get lost to get where I need to.

Is this really what I agreed to?

Right now, nothing's clear.

And I just know I don't want to be here.

Do I have to break down to break through?

Get lost to get where I need to.

Is this really what I agreed to?

Right now, nothing's clear.

And I just know I don't want to be here.

And I just know I don't want to be here.
