They dropped me off, I'm all alone
They said, just stay, make yourself at home
But the walls feel tight, the air's too stale
Counting the hours, biting my nails

Take me back, don’t wanna stay
I don’t belong here anyway
I'm holding tight to the thought of you
I'm gone home, yeah, see it through

They gave me toys, told me to play
But nothing here can make me stay
I'm seeing faces I don’t know
Just wanna go where I can let go

Take me back, don’t wanna stay
I don’t belong here anyway
I'm holding tight to the thought of you
I'm gone home, yeah, see it through

Counting minutes, counting doors
Looking at windows, checking floors
Feel like a ghost, drifting away
Nothing they say can make me stay

Take me back, don’t wanna stay
I don’t belong here anyway
I'm holding tight to the thought of you
I'm gone home, yeah, see it through
Take me back, don’t wanna stay
I don’t belong here anyway
I'm holding tight to the thought of you
I'm gone home, yeah, see it through

Counting minutes, counting doors
Looking at windows, checking floors
Feel like a ghost, drifting away
Nothing they say can make me stay

Counting minutes, counting doors
Looking at windows, checking floors
Counting minutes, counting doors
Looking at windows, checking floors
Nothing they say can make me stay

Counting minutes, counting doors
Looking at windows, checking floors
Counting minutes, counting doors
Looking at windows, checking floors
Counting minutes, drifting away

Counting minutes, counting doors
Looking at windows, checking floors
Feel like a ghost, drifting away
Nothing they say can make me stay
