Lyrics

Nobody wants me

Nobody desires my presence or company.

I'd trade it all for a younger soul

I would give up everything for a more youthful spirit or essence.

My body's fine but I feel so old

Physically, I may be in good shape, but emotionally or mentally, I feel aged or worn out.

I know what I want to be happy and free

I know what I need to be happy and liberated, but achieving it seems distant from my current state of suffering.

But it feels so far away from my misery

The desired state of happiness and freedom feels far removed from my current state of misery.

Being left out feels like home

Feeling excluded or abandoned is familiar and comforting to me.

Nobody wants me nobody wants me oh

No one wishes to have me; there is a sense of rejection or isolation.

Nobody wants me nobody wants me oh

The theme of being unwanted and rejected persists.

Nobody would love their arms around my back

No one would embrace me with love, showing a lack of affection or acceptance.

to poke fun just to hear the way I laugh

Others make jokes at my expense just to hear the sound of my laughter.

Nobody wants me oh

Reiteration of the idea that nobody desires or wants the speaker.

Nobody wants me

Continuation of the theme of being unwanted or unloved.

Nobody wants me

Repetition emphasizing the sense of rejection or loneliness.

All my friends have since moved on

All of the speaker's friends have moved on, leaving them alone.

And now the weekends feel so long

The weekends, typically a time for socializing, feel extended and lonely without companionship.

Don't know if I'll ever be happy and free

Uncertainty about whether the speaker will ever experience happiness and freedom.

I'm closer than ever to my misery

The speaker feels closer to their state of misery rather than happiness.

Being left out is all I know

Being excluded or left out is a recurring and dominant experience for the speaker.

Nobody wants me nobody wants me oh

Reiteration of the theme that nobody desires or wants the speaker.

Nobody wants me nobody wants me oh

The feeling of being unwanted persists and intensifies.

Nobody would love their arms around my back

No one would warmly embrace the speaker, reinforcing a lack of connection or love.

to poke fun just to hear the way I laugh

Others make jokes at the speaker's expense to provoke laughter.

Nobody wants me oh
