Don't Be There

Don't be there, don't be there

'Cause I'm on my way

And I'm already gone over

And I'm on my way, heyAnd I can't recall myself

How I went down?

Did I get shot or shoot myself?I'm down here, I'm down here

And you're way up there

That doesn't hurt badly

But it stings right here, heyI can't recall myself

How I went down?

Did I get shot or shoot myself?And I won't pretend there's nothing there

You be around and I'll be square

Don't be alarmed if I'm not there

You be around and I'll be squareIf you're a rose then I'm the thorn

That's in your side

And does it hurt badly

'Cause it burns right here, heyI can't recall myself

How I went down?

Did I get shot or shoot myself?I'd like to say hello, I'd like to say I care

I'd like to let you know

That nothing here's the same with me

Nothing here's the sameI can't recall myself

How I went down?

Did I get shot or shoot myself?And I won't pretend there's nothing there

You be around and I'll be square

Don't be alarmed if I'm not there

You be around and I'll be squareDon't be around

Don't be there

Don't be there
