Wanderlust

wan·der·lust

ˈwändərˌləst/

noun

1. a strong desire to travel.

"a man consumed by wanderlust"

You ask me why I don't want to be here, why I wake up and I leave to go sit and stare at different four walls and you yell about why you don't understand why I don't want to spend time with you and you yell about why I'm gone from the moment I wake up until after everyone is in bed and why I can't come home sooner.

And all I can do is yell back about how I woke up every day for three months and I sat here and I was here all day until I went to bed and then I get up and I was here all day until I went to bed and I did that every day for three months and so when I'm finally able to get out of the house and I can actually go do something you're mad that I take advantage of it.

Waking up and I face the same four walls, then if I do leave to maybe go to the store, I'm still in the same four corners of a small town.

I just wanted to travel and if that meant I traveled across town to a different four walls then I will.

I just wanted a change.
