anywhere but here

I bought the ticket, got on the flight I told my parents, they know I lied Could cut the tension with a knife I loved your family like they were mine My heart was racing, I knew you lied Your selfish ways had me hypnotized And I wish I could go back in time And tell myself I'd be alright after leaving I'd rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here Rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here I always knew you'd never change Wish knowing took my pain away I'd rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here The hesitation, I sympathize Cause now it's different Look in my eyes Three hundred chances, I'm cutting ties Actions louder than words are strong Left alone, yet strong along Sometimes I'm thankful you're in the wrong And I wish I could go back in time And tell myself I'd be alright at the free fall I'd rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here Rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here I always knew you'd never change Wish knowing took my pain away I'd rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here I'd rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but Long time coming, they all stalled before my rose-colored glasses They fell on the floor I raced away, couldn't ignore Comforting to have you around again Could go back in time and say never cave in But the monsters took over And I lost it I'd rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here Rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here I always knew you'd never change Grow up say it to my face I'd rather be, rather be, rather be anywhere but here Anywhere but here
