[F] Never looked forward to the future, never enjoyed where I've been.
[C] Couldn't keep my mind in the moment.
Never really cared if I had a friend.
[F] Always felt like there was something better, even when I had it made.
[C] Never respected the job I was doing.
Never cared about money, but I felt underpaid.
[G] Saw so many people [F] walking out the door.
[C] Never cared about being lonely, cause I couldn't use you no more.
I [F] say go away,
[C] I'm quitting on you today.

[F] Always felt like sorrow was a lesson.
Always felt I needed to feel the pain.
I thought [C] happiness was a transgression.
And I just took it as it came.
[F] Never wanted to say too much to other people I did not understand.
[G] [C] Never made love with my heart in it.
Never wanted to make any plans.
[G] Saw some mandated lovers
[F] walk out that door.
[C] Never cared about being lonely, cause you didn't love me no more.
I say [F] go away, go away, I'm quitting on you [C] today.

[C] Love them, leave them, then [F] forget them.
Don't worry about when they're gone.
[C] That's the way I always played it.
Now maybe I played it all wrong.
[F] Been so indifferent about so many things.
About my time and my rich.
[C] Thought I was living a life of freedom.
But I was living in a cage.
[F] And that cage bred with my lower self.
So many nights I did not die.
[C] They came undone by my thoughts.
And here's the reason why.
[G] Saw some mandated lovers [F] walk out that door.
[C] Never cared about being lonely, cause you didn't love me no more.
I [F] say go away, go away, go away.
I'm
