By the Sea

Skipping smooth black stones by the sea
Jeans are wet up to my knees
Back when I drank coffee with cream
I was easier to please
Duck into a frame of mind too small
To hold the chaos of it all
Glance around like a flower on a wall
Hoping maybe you would call
I don't wanna be
Don't wanna be
Don't wanna be stuck
In that room alone
I don't wanna be
Don't wanna be
Don't wanna be stuck
In that room alone
That room alone with me
Endlessly perusing used book stores
Stories sprawled out on the floor
Psycho thriller's what I'm searching for
Romance is such a bore
I swear I'm not the sentimental type
Perfected the art of goodbye
While collecting bits of people I like
I dream of them at night
I don't wanna be
Don't wanna be
Don't wanna be stuck
In that room alone
I don't wanna be
Don't wanna be
Don't wanna be stuck
In that room alone
That room alone with me
Maybe it's 'cause I'm not very cool
Maybe it's 'cause I act like a fool
In the company of my peers
I'm pretty weird
I don't know how to pretend I'm totally fine
if you walk out of here
I don't wanna be
Don't wanna be
Don't wanna be stuck
I don't wanna be
Don't wanna be
Don't wanna be stuck
In that room alone
