I Just Wanna Go Home


Please just let me go home
I can't stay here
Nothing satisfies
I can't even eat
The sight of food makes me sick
I just really want to leave

Please just let me go home
I've been abused, used, and lied to
I don't see a purpose in me staying
My friends will survive
They have each other
I just wanna go
I just wanna leave

Please just let me go home
To where there is no night
No hatred
No sadness
I want to be there
I just want to go there
