Not Going Anywhere

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'd never thought that you would believe a single word I say

I never thought that you would by buy it, put it on display

Oh, car drive home your easy to confess

You reach out touch you ever turn your head

Despite crime and hate coursing through your veins

I'll stay, you'll change

Oh-oh (oh-oh)

I'm not going anywhere

(Not going anywhere)

Oh-oh (oh-oh)

I'm not going anywhere

(Not going anywhere)

Lord knows it takes a lot of medicine to keep this pace

I'd never thought it'd be so easy to manipulate

Oh, house of horrors, house of ours

You resent me like your father

Oh I can't get enough, and you can't take it any longer

Despite the smile and pain of sharing my last name

I'll stay, you'll change

Oh-oh (oh-oh)

I'm not going anywhere

(Not going anywhere)

Oh-oh (oh-oh)

I'm not going anywhere

(Not going anywhere)

Oh-oh (oh-oh)

Oh-oh

I'm not going anywhere

Staring with that smug look on your face

I'll backtrack take back all I say

Try to put the pieces in place

Just stay, I will change

You like this hollow mannequin

Put on display, then thrown away

Can't recognize my own face

Just stay, I will change

Oh-oh (oh-oh)

I'm not going anywhere

(Not going anywhere)

Oh-oh (oh-oh)

I'm not going anywhere

(Not going anywhere)

(Oh-oh)

I'd never thought that I would believe a single word you say

(Not going anywhere)

(Oh-oh, oh-oh)

I never thought that it would be so easy to manipulate

I'm not going anywhere

I'm not going anywhere
