lyrics

When I was young I used to get so mad
I'd pretend no one else in the world even existed.
So I could be alone.
And in the car I'd slump down real low
to soak up the silence
I won't waste my breath on you.
I didn't smell the rain until it was already pouring down.
I didn't feel the rain until it was already on the ground.
I can't wait for this night to end.
But I'm not going home just yet.
When I was young I used to get so mad.
I'd lash out, I wasn't fun to be around.
I'd go for walks to cure the pain in my heart
And I'd get lost along the darkest roads
after jumping out of a car
I never held onto anything at all..
I didn't smell the rain until it was already pouring down.
I didn't feel the rain until it was already on the ground.
I can't wait for this night to end.
But I'm not going home just yet.
When I was young I could get lost inside my room.
Listening to albums stuck on my bed.
I can't get up because my limbs will not move.
Not lack of strength, just the effects of darvocet.
I couldn't feel the rain..
I can't wait for this night to end.
But I'm not going home just yet.
I'm not going home..
I can't go back.. I can't go back..
I'll run away.. and I will never go home.
