Lyrics

Why can’t I go, where I wanna go.

Feeling restricted and unable to go to desired places.

Why can’t I say, what I wanna say.

Expressing frustration at the inability to speak freely.

Why can’t I live, like I wanna live.

Desire for a life according to personal preferences.

And why can‘t I love, who I wanna love.

Yearning to love without societal restrictions.

You’re just talkin shit,

Perceiving criticism or negativity from others.

And I don’t get it.

Confusion and frustration over others' behavior.

And ruining those things,

Observing the destruction of important aspects of life.

That I’ve to quit.

Forced to abandon certain things due to external factors.

Why can’t I love, who I wanna love.

Reiteration of the desire to love freely.

Like I never had a choice,

Feeling constrained, as if there was no real choice.

You’re ruinin’ everything I love.

Expressing the impact of external influences on love.

I don‘t wanna be here anymore,

Strong desire to escape the current situation.

We’re talking like we never did before.

Noticing a change in communication dynamics.

Oh I don’t wanna be here anymore.

Reiteration of the strong desire to escape.

I just wanna fly away, just fly away.

Expressing the longing to fly away and escape.

So i don’ t have to be here anymore.

Reiterating the desire to avoid the current circumstances.

Why can’t I do, what I think is true.

Questioning the inability to act on true beliefs.

Why can’t I feel, what I think is real.

Yearning to feel what is perceived as genuine.

Why can’t I mind, things I left behind.

Reflecting on things left behind and the difficulty of letting go.

And why can’t I love, who I wanna love.

Reiterating the desire to love freely.

I don‘t wanna be here anymore,

Repetition of the strong desire to escape the current situation.

We’re talking like we never did before.

Observing a shift in communication dynamics.

Oh I don’t wanna be here anymore.

Reiteration of the strong desire to escape.

I just wanna fly away, just fly away.

Expressing the longing to fly away and escape.
