Don't Wanna
Lyrics
You keep on going home
To see who noticed you were gone
Begging old friends to approve
Of what it is that you've got going on
While they were breaking walls
You walked on by and tried the door
No one in the whole wide world had
Thought to check that it was locked before
Oh I know
It's hard to believe
Oh I know
It's easy to see
Take another beat, get yourself aware, I wanna
Kick it to the surface but there's still no air, and you can't
Pick another body, got no face to wear
Just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
And now the walls are down
But still you're running round and round
An old dog doing older tricks
And waiting for the day they put you down
While you shared your desire
To graduate and then retire
The rest of us were finding out
There's so much more to life than setting fires
Oh I know
It's hard to believe
Oh I know
It's easy to see
Take another beat, get yourself aware, I wanna
Kick it to the surface but there's still no air, and you can't
Pick another body, got no face to wear
Just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
Turn over the hour glass and see
All of the things that you could be
And you'll remember every day
All of the things that you let slip away
You let them slip away
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anything but what I mean to be
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anyone but who I'm born to be
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anything but what I mean to be
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anyone but who I'm born
Take it all away, cause I never cared
I wanna make it to the top, but there's no one there
And you can't break another promise, got no cross to bear
Just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
You keep on going home
To see who noticed you were gone
Begging old friends to approve
Of what it is that you've got going on
While they were breaking walls
You walked on by and tried the door
No one in the whole wide world had
Thought to check that it was locked before
Oh I know
It's hard to believe
Oh I know
It's easy to see
Take another beat, get yourself aware, I wanna
Kick it to the surface but there's still no air, and you can't
Pick another body, got no face to wear
Just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
And now the walls are down
But still you're running round and round
An old dog doing older tricks
And waiting for the day they put you down
While you shared your desire
To graduate and then retire
The rest of us were finding out
There's so much more to life than setting fires
Oh I know
It's hard to believe
Oh I know
It's easy to see
Take another beat, get yourself aware, I wanna
Kick it to the surface but there's still no air, and you can't
Pick another body, got no face to wear
Just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
Turn over the hour glass and see
All of the things that you could be
And you'll remember every day
All of the things that you let slip away
You let them slip away
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anything but what I mean to be
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anyone but who I'm born to be
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anything but what I mean to be
I don't wanna
I don't gotta
I ain't gonna be anyone but who I'm born
Take it all away, cause I never cared
I wanna make it to the top, but there's no one there
And you can't break another promise, got no cross to bear
Just keep breathing
Just keep breathing
