Lyrics
I Don't Want to Live Here Anymore
Verse I:
I've been living in a home
Painted by the choices that I've made
Trapped inside the walls
Of all my yesterdays
But I've learned from my mistakes
That I've got what it takes
To leave my failures at the door
Cause I don't want to live here
Chorus:
I don't want to live here anymore
In a world of broken dreams
I don't want to make my home
Inside a rusty memory
Time to pack up and move on
Say goodbye to all I've known
I don't want to live here
I don't want to live here
Anymore
Verse II:
The voices of the past
Echo clearly in my mind
How can I move forward
If I'm looking back in time
I'm ready to forgive myself
Take my dreams back off the shelf
It's time to reach for something more
Cause I don't want to live here
Bridge:
A whole new world is waiting
Just beyond the door
Every dreamed I've ever dreamed
I'm going for it all
