Lyrics
[Intro]
I'm sick of us not doing this right
That's why I think I'm cutting you from my life, no more
I'm sick of us not doing this right
That's why I think I'm cutting you from my life, no more
[Verse 1]
Wasted energy, spent in a place
Where every hour awake, I need an escape to centre me
And I don't mean to make a rush for the door
But time's a currency, I'm currently poor
[Verse 2]
I'll be leaving here soon, I don't mean to be rude
But this scene ain't for me, like you mum seeing your nudes
I got places I'd rather be and wanting to see
Stopping to breathe, so hard around these oxygen thieves
I ain't waiting around for all my days to amount
To less than average, shed the baggage that is weighing me down
You can take my pride and money and leverage that
But you taking my time is something I'll never get back
And you bet that I'ma jet, do a runner
Got a lot of regrets, won't let you be another
So I'ma exit casually, do a stealth
Before I'm the next casualty of myself
[Chorus]
Everybody say 'Hi'
Look who's finally arrived
I'm not looking for a good time
I'm just looking for the exit sign
I'm just trying to get by
Been here one too many times
I'm not standing in the bathroom line
I'm just looking for the exit sign
[Verse 3]
I am like, 'Peace', start fresh like you born-again
Jesus wept, ha, I don't mean it
But don't mind it if it cause offense
We make moves, not amends
Feels like you'll never leave, and the chorus went
Don't care who goes against
Not you, not him, not two, not ten, mmm-mm
Calling your bluff, don't call me your friend
You in it for your fifteen minutes, it's quarter past ten
God damn!
I'd take a mate's house over this place
Any day out of the calendar days now
I mean, I ain't even waiting to bounce
You won't even hear the door hit me on the way out, nah
You ever notice that's how this go?
Ain't it funny how the ones who can flex just don't?
Well, I mean, maybe a little, but you know
They put on a show, we are the show, everybody say
[Chorus]
Everybody say 'Hi'
Look who's finally arrived
I'm not looking for a good time
I'm just looking for the exit sign
I'm just trying to get by
Been here one too many times
I'm not standing in the bathroom line
I'm just looking for the exit sign
[Verse 4]
I am like, 'Nope', I ain't even trying to check in my
Coat, I'm only trying to check in with my
Folks, and my friends they all know that I won't
Stick around for the blah-blah-blah
Conversation here is shallow as a kids pool
But when it's full of people, who say 'literally'
When something is not literal
Are you simple or are you kidding with me?
Go hit the floor, man, I'm sure you want to
I'll hit the door, hit the horn and watch Norm MacDonald
Man, it's weird to me, that when you are in a band you can get
Appearance fees like you were kicked off the Bachelorette
But, I don't give a fuck about the money
And I don't give a fuck about the party
Man, anyone that know me know the only thing
I give a fuck about in this phoney world
Is Ari and Poppy
[Bridge]
If I lose my way
I know this all amounts to nothing
I got a million ways for wasting excess time
But I've got moves to make
And I ain't that self-destructive
I need to bail out towards the exit sign
[Chorus]
Everybody say 'Hi'
Look who's finally arrived
I'm not looking for a good time
I'm just looking for the exit sign
I'm just trying to get by
Been here one too many times
I'm not standing in the bathroom line
I'm just looking for the exit sign
[Chorus]
Everybody say 'Hi'
Look who's finally arrived
I'm not looking for a good time
I'm just looking for the exit sign
I'm just trying to get by
Been here one too many times
I'm not standing in the bathroom line
I'm just looking for the exit sign
