[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be like this
I've been running these streets for too long now
I've got nothing, it's true, but this song now
But the further I go, I wanna go home
'Cause I don't wanna be like this
I've been running these streets for too long now
I've got nothing, it's true, but this song now
But the further I go, I wanna go home

[Verse 1]
I fucking swear that I care, but it's hard when you stare
Into the bottom of a bottle that is empty and bare
Oh, my desolate soul in my desolate home
It's my desolate role, yeah, I'm here all alone
I can't think of a reason to get the fuck out of bed
Curtains closed, lights are off, am I alive or dead?
I haven't shaved in a week, I always slur when I speak
Tolerance at its peak, another fifth just to sleep
Oh, woe is me, woe is me, I guess I need love
And hoes you see, hoes you see, I'm just in a rut
And I swear I'm trying, baby, please, baby, don't leave
Goddamn, I'm a fuck up but I guess that's just me
So I sit in my room and I cry in my bed
Thinking about all the shit that made me wrong in my head
I keep trying to climb, but it seems so steep
Pour myself another whiskey and go back to sleep, bitch
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be like this
I've been running these streets for too long now
I've got nothing, it's true, but this song now
But the further I go, I wanna go home
'Cause I don't wanna be like this
I've been running these streets for too long now
I've got nothing, it's true, but this song now
But the further I go, I wanna go home

[Verse 2]
I watch my mama cry, she said "baby, why?"
I say "baby died, baby's gone like a suicide"
Oh don't think you'll see him soon, Mom, get out my room, Mom
Tell daddy that I'm sick, I don't think I'll see him real soon, Mom
I sing this shit for you Snuff, Sandra and Kylee
These beers keep getting warmer every time that I hold 'em
I pour this out for you like a partner in crime
It's a part of the times when you're sick in the mind
Yeah, I'm sick, oh, so sick, I'm so sick of this shit
Yeah, I'm lit, oh, so lit, I'm so fucked up off it
So I stumble around till I stumble fall down
Into this puddle of my tears laying here on the ground
When you've got nothing left you've got nothing left to lose
With my last, this single breath, I'll still be singing out to you
So when you bury me, man, you better bury me deep
And sing along to this song 'cause you're broken like me
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be like this
I've been running these streets for too long now
I've got nothing, it's true, but this song now
But the further I go, I wanna go home
'Cause I don't wanna be like this
I've been running these streets for too long now
I've got nothing, it's true, but this song now
But the further I go, I wanna go home

[Bridge]
And I wanna go back to the start
Back where we started from
And I know it's been so long
I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong all along
And I wanna go back to the start
Back where we started from
And I know it's been so long
I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong all along

[Outro]
Trust, misfortune
We suffer from broken promises and bleeding because of the consequences of love
This depression is so dark and warm because it traps you in a grave
It's when the other person just doesn't give a fuck about your feelings
And just moves on so quickly like you didn't even matter to them to begin with
That's what killing me the most
It's now I'm just some fucking ghost
This pain is just a sickness, it's so cold
I just can't wait to get you out of my system and move on
The memories and scars will forever haunt me
And you're so fucking evil the way you taunt me
All I did was love and you meant everything to me
But this shit is clear now
I meant nothing to you
