lyrics

i gotta get out of this place
cause all the work is starting to feel like a waste
i could be making a list of everything nice
i could be making a life
instead i feel like the knife
at the throat of my every accomplishment
i say, "i'd rather be home"
they say, "you gotta pay rent"

i've got a
death wish and i'm making it known
cause all my clothes lately
have smelled like cigarette smoke
and i'll be watching myself with the utmost of caution and care
i'm scared

i gotta get out of this town
because i can't shake the feeling no one wants me around
cause i'm vociferously making complaints
about the people i live with
and the colors of paint
i am not interested in anything you have to say
won't you please shut the fuck up?
stay the fuck out of my way

i've got a
death wish and i'm making it known
cause all my clothes lately have smelled like cigarette smoke
and i'll be watching myself with the utmost of caution and care
i'm scared

you may think i'm condescending
but i don't wanna come off that way
i'm just not abject, and i object
to anything that'd make me less-than-okay
so when i leave, you can rest easy
cause you know i won't ever look back
so excuse my acerbicness, i'm just servicing
the things i know to be facts

i've got a
death wish and i'm making it known
cause all my clothes lately have smelled like cigarette smoke
and i'll be watching myself with the utmost of caution and care
i'm scared
