Not Where I Wanna Be Lyrics by Soapbox Sound

2022

This hotel room is spinning
So I guess we won't have sex
Maybe a nice shower will do the trick
While she swipes online to find out who's next
The barstools had no backs
So I could use a massage on mine
I get out the shower and look in the mirror
Holy shit that guy looks 25
I got to drink less next time
Chorus
Cus' this
This is not where I wanna be right now
Verse 2
I grew up in the good part of jersey
I know this town like the back of my hand
It's not that I wanna leave but maybe just see
A more romanticized land
Where the buildings housed all the greats
And the walls know not to speak
But how good could the views be now
Since I've seen them all already on tv
All I know is that it seems to me
Chorus
That this
This is not where I wanna be right now
Bridge
I'm working 2 jobs and 7 days
To make money for my childhood dreams
That kid back then would be so upset
At all the things I haven't achieved
Thought I could make it on the screen
Maybe write a few hit songs
But turns out I'm not a great actor
And I write my verses too long
While saying it all wrong
About how this
This is not where I wanna be right now
So I'm just seeing where the day goes
Hoping something soon will break
A shoe to drop or a curse to stop
At least for my poor mothers sake
I wanna make it to the big time
Get married have a couple of kids
But there's a guy in my way every day
And a train outta here that I missed
But all I know is that this
This is not where I wanna be right now
This
(The world is getting older and I'm just getting colder)
This is not where I wanna be
(And I keep letting myself down)
This is not where I wanna be
(I keep letting myself down)
Right now woah
(I keep letting myself down)
This
(The world is getting colder and I'm just getting older)
This is not where I wanna be
(And I keep letting myself down)
This is not where I wanna be
(I keep letting myself down)
Right now woah
(I keep letting myself down)
This
(The world is getting older and I'm just getting colder)
This is not where I wanna be
(And I keep letting myself down)
This is not where I wanna be
(I keep letting myself down)
Right now woah
(I keep letting myself down)
