Don't Wanna Live Here Anymore Lyrics - Alan G.

So what is there to say now 

Maybe not a lot 

On this road that leads me from my town 

They slammed the door behind me 

Taken all I've got 

Called me every name and kicked me down 

But the Heavens don't believe 

When they say that they love me 

I can see right through the lies that pass as creed 

But folks 'round here don't understand 

I'm just bein' who I am 

How can they know just how it feels 

To live a life you must conceal 

So runnin' away's my only plan 

Cuz secrets can destroy a man 

If I cannot be free to say 

All that my heart proves anyway 

Then I won't stay here one more day 

What should I hide a secret for 

If I can't open up this door 

I don't wanna live here anymore 

So what is there to do now 

Maybe not a lot 

Goodbye small town, I'm not what you had hoped 

It's really very easy 

But people always got 

A need to keep the walls that blind them most 

Maybe one day I'll return 

Watch this door ripped down and burned 

But the truth will be defied until they learn 

Cuz folks 'round here don't understand 

I wanna be the man I am 

How can they know just how it feels 

To be denied a love that's real 

Livin' a life you can't reveal 

So runnin' away's my only chance 

Cuz hatred can destroy a man 

If I cannot be free to say 

All that my heart proves anyway 

Then I won't stay here one more day 

What should I hide a secret for 

If I can't open up this door 

I don't wanna live here anymore
