I Didn't Wanna Stay Here
How long 'til songs that we're singing become overplayed?
How long 'til the war that we're waging, outweighs the lives that we've saved?
How long will the politicians lobby our interests, then change?
How long will we sit here waiting, when all we do is complain?
And from the start, I knew we had it wrong.
And from the start, we knew it all along.
Didn't wanna stay here, didn't wanna stay.
Judy puts on her old jean jacket to cover up her tattoos,
The constant struggle to be accepted, and to love herself.
She quit drinking the week before last to regain self control.
Now she spends the weekend, shaking, staring at her phone.
And for a while, we lived our separate lives.
Never minding when the answers were not found.
Didn't wanna stay here, but I love wasting my time.
I still stare at my open window, paralyzed by regret.
I think of all my friends and my family, successful and newlywed.
Me and Judy, we had such a good thing, best friends attached at the hip,
So obsessed with the competition, we did each other in.
How long will we wait for it?
How long will we waste for it?
How long? How long?
