I Don’t Wanna

[Verse 1]
I just wanna kill some time
But time has the upper hand
I don't wanna fall into that trap
Don't wanna fall like the other man
I just wanna be someone
But the world is just too big
I don't wanna get lost in memory
Don't wanna take it on the chin

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be too comfortable
I'm young, I don't wanna be too careful
What a dangerous state of mind
And I ain't got the time
To see the years go by
I'm damned if I wake up on that day in July
And I find that everything has passed me by
Oh not this time

[Verse 2]
Life gives you lemons
So don't cut down the tree
At least that's what they said to me
But I don't even mind
What good is a lemon when I'm choking on the rinds?
And I don't wanna waste my time
Getting wasted every night
But I don't wanna miss the wonder years
Ain't going down without a fight

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be too comfortable
I'm young, I don't wanna be too careful
What a dangerous state of mind
And I ain't got the time
To see the years go by
I'm damned if I wake up on that day in July
And I find that everything has passed me by
Oh not this time

[Break]
Oh can't you see
This isn't me
But it's exactly where I'm supposed to be
I'll wait and see
What my life brings
At the ripe age of twenty-three

I don't wanna be too comfortable
I don't wanna be too comfortable

[Chorus]
No, I don't wanna be too comfortable
I'm young, I don't wanna be too careful
What a dangerous state of mind
And I ain't got the time
To see the years go by
I'm damned if I wake up on that day in July
And I find that everything has passed me by

[Outro]
Oh not this time
Oh not this time, no
Not this time
