There's just one thing I can say
There's just one thing I can say
I wanna be alone
I wanna be alone
And turn off all my phones
And turn off all the phones
and sit around and space out all the day
and sit around and space out all the day

If you left it up to me
If you left it up to me
I'd turn on everyone
I'd turn on everyone
If you left it, wild and free
If you left it wild and free
I'd break that chain and burn this all
I'd break that chain and burn this off
 
Everybody shut your mouth
I'm vacationing down south
Where nobody talks, moves around or walks
Heavier than feathers on the sea
