don't wanna go home and be unhappy don't wanna go to where everybody's happy but if I didn't go I know I would be lying why should I go back to where everybody's crying everybody's gonna see everybody's wondering everybody's gonna bash my $20 Christmas try to keep your mouth closed cross your fingers cross your toes everybody's gonna bash my $20 Christmas strip me of my pride a candle lit dinner what's the deal? so I lied you'll never be a winner and though I stand alone I feel you close beside me but I won't go back home I know I would be lying it's not my fault
