David Kirby - I Don't Want To Be Here (OTB Session)

Childhood bedroom, back again
I'm here for the wedding of a childhood friend
And there were cartoons here once, long since gone
Outlined in sky blue with Pokemon
But it's a fitting metaphor for growing old
They'll cover your childhood dreams with beige paint and window mould

And I know I can't complain
They do so much for me and I'm always such a pain
But I'm too old now to change
I'm ungrateful and a user
And the story stays the same because

I don't want to be here
I don't want to be here
And I'm not sure to what extent I mean
I'm just a malcontent and such a drama queen
I don't know where I'll end up I just know I've got The Fear
And I know I don't want to be here

I need to grow up
Sort this out
I'm over 30 and too old to piss about
But there's just no passion
No inner drive
I need a motive if I'm gonna survive because

I don't want to be here
I don't want to be here
And I'm not sure to what extent I mean
I'm just a malcontent and such a drama queen
I don't know where I'll end up I just know I've got The Fear
And I know I don't want to be here

I don't want to be here
I don't want to be here
I don't want to be here
I don't want to be here
