Won't Be Long Songtext
von The Hives

No bright lights, no big city
Went to my head
And so I won′t stick around in this town
No, I'm getting out instead
′Cause I can't find a thing and get it done
Raise my heart and ring my ears
So I won't stick around in this town
That′s true

′Cause I won't and I can′t
And I don't understand
You become what you hate
Or you hate what you become?

Got me a ticket and I won′t be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone
Got me a ticket and I won't be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone away


So I make my way through the quagmire
Rumors glorifying me
You were as, as the detox in this city
So if I may be excused
′Cause I won't and I can′t
And I don't understand
You become what you hate
Or you hate what you become?

Got me a ticket and I won′t be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone
Got me a ticket and I won't be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone
Got me a ticket and I won′t be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone
Got me a ticket and I won't be long
′Cause I can't go on and I gotta get gone away

Well, I won′t be around for the good times
Won't be around for the bad
And I won't stick around in this town
No I′m getting out instead, yeah, yeah, yeah

And I won′t and I can't
And I live ′cause I can
And I won't be back again


Well, I got me a ticket and I won′t be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone
Got me a ticket and I won't be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone
Got me a ticket and I won′t be long
'Cause I can′t go on and I gotta get gone
Got me a ticket and I won't be long
′Cause I can't go on and I gotta get gone away

And I gotta get gone away
′Cause I gotta get gone away
Gotta get gone away
