right where I am

if there's a mistake to be made
I'll make it
a chance that I could be afraid
I'll take it
I'm closing the windows
locking the doors
I ain't going out
in the world no more
I'm gonna do the best I can
I'm staying right where I am

if there's a way to get out of bed
I don't need it
a book of advice to be read
I won't read it
I'm staying ignorant
I'm staying naive
I'm staying indoors
and I ain't gonna leave
I'm gonna make my stand
staying right where I am

          don't call me on the telephone
          can't you see nobody's home?
          I don't want no social media
          get outta here, I don't need ya

if you're trying hard to help
try harder
I need to be by myself
I'm a martyr
'cause I've been through enough
it's plain to see
you're just another person
who'll give up on me
you just don't understand
I'm staying right where I am
nobody gives a damn
I'm staying right where I am
