I wake at 6 in the evening
with a dull ache in my head
the windows are leaking
dusk light on to my bed
the TV is buzzing
an ad between the innings
"just buy yourself a ticket,
"to any place but this shit!"
I need to go anywhere but here
can't take another year
anxiety and fear
I need to go anywhere but here
can't stand to wait around
for things to tumble down
I turn on the computer screen
and stare out of reality
to a world where I'm performing
any role to feel like something
be a ghost
try to coast or just get by on wicked hope
every day passes by, you'll wonder why
you wasted so much time
there aren't a lot of things
holding you back
sell your shit, get a bag, and fuckin' pack
I need to go anywhere but here
can't take another year
anxiety and fear
I need to go anywhere but here
can't stand to wait around
for things to tumble down
