Lyrics
maybe i'm sad, i don't know, it doesn't matter
don't ask me any questions, i don't care to hear your banter
i need time to think before my mind begins to shrink
and i don't need a hug or smile or special handshake or a wink
i just want to be by myself
put me back upon the shelf
turn off the TV and unplug the phone
now get the hell away from me and heed my warning please
leave me alone!
i don't wanna talk
i don't wanna hear
i don't wanna share
leave me alone!
i don't wanna laugh
i don't wanna cry
i don't wanna care
leave me alone!
i'm just not ready for
the things you have to say
so maybe it'd be for the best
if you would go away
leave me alone!
maybe it's bad, but i don't want to talk about it
right now i need to figure how to live with or without it
i need time to know if i can do another show
and i can't ethically do something just 'cause someone tells me so
i need to know where i went wrong
and figure out where i belong
nothing seems important now
"do not disturb" is hanging up so i expext that you'll
leave me alone!
i don't wanna talk
i don't wanna hear
i don't wanna share
leave me alone!
i don't wanna laugh
i don't wanna cry
i don't wanna care
leave me alone!
i'm just not ready for
the things you have to say
so maybe it'd be for the best
if you would go away
leave me alone!
pretend that you can't see me
then i'll be less uneasy
thanks but no thanks for your shoulder
i work it out myself so as for now i don't exist
leave me alone!
i don't wanna talk
i don't wanna hear
i don't wanna share
leave me alone!
i don't wanna laugh
i don't wanna cry
i don't wanna care
leave me alone!
i'm just not ready for
the things you have to say
so maybe it'd be for the best
if you would go away
leave me alone!
leave me alone!
leave me alone!
leave me alone!
leave me alone!
