Danny Horn & the Shared Myths - I Don't Live Here (Anymore)

I'm moving on from vampires and vultures from the east
I don't care where I'm going, just away from them at least
I've been tossed around this battleground, backwards through the mud
Cos I would not force a discourse with a thing that sucks my blood

In my mind I moved out weeks ago, in my mind I shut the door
But this husk of skin is still within your roof, your walls, your floor
As my soul and spirit gone away my blood and guts remain
Is it insanity? Duality? I ask you once again...

I don't live here anymore, I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you, can't forgive you anymore
We've been back and forth and oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I been through it, I can't do it. I don't live here anymore.

Am I here because I want to be? Does it bring me joy?
Or am I willingly fulfilling the ambition of a boy?
A boy I don't remember but his path I follow still
Should I turn on him? Abandon him? Or go in for the kill?

A ridiculous addiction that I'm struggling to ignore
A public crucifixion in a Tesco Superstore
As I sniff around for evidence to help me with my case
It's powder on a mirror, a reflection of my face

But I don't live here anymore, I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you, can't forgive you anymore
We've been back and forth and oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I been through it, I can't do it. I don't live here anymore.

Frost descends but in the end it seems we tend to feel cleansed.
As time suspends.
We're on the brink and then we sink and so we drink, our glasses clink and then you wink
I start to think we must be linked
From you to me, some mystery, some guarantee, some prophesy that you and me
Can finally be in harmony

But I don't live here anymore, I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you, can't forgive you anymore
We've been back and forth and oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I been through it, I can't do it. I don't live here anymore.

No I don't live here anymore, I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you, can't forgive you anymore
We've been back and forth and oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I been through it, I can't do it. I don't live here anymore.
