All I want is to find a place to get away
As my mental health crumbles my care for anything fades
Into time spent trying to hide from friends and school
It all feels like a waste of time
So why should I care if I'm eligible
For some fucking uni course
That'll lead me to another brick wall
I just want to say fuck it all and drop out
I can be broke and happy
I'm sure my teachers will be fine without me
I'll just live in some shithole
Fuck it I like my minimum wage job
It's the only thing that makes sense anymore
Should I choose mediocrity to avoid an education
I could live alone in my own little world
I've made it this far but I guess there's nothing I deserve
I just want to drop out
I'm not even joking anymore
The options are right there so what am I wasting my time for
It's time to make up for all the hours that I've lost
Doing fuck all
Cos that's seriously all I want
I'll drift between sad and angry
Till I wake up from this bad dream
And I'll gladly trade this deadbeat lifestyle
For anything that I can find
