Lykke Li - Everybody But Me

Oh, I’m standing in the corner
Thinking all I want to, what am I to do?
Should I go home still sober?
Or should I buy me another glass of wine and forget about time?

Though my jeans are too tight, don’t feel like dancing
Though this light is too bright, don’t feel like shining
Though this room is too small, rather stand against the wall
And hope that no one sees me

When everybody’s dancing, I don’t want to
When everybody’s joking, I don’t want to
When everybody’s laughing, I don’t want to
Everybody but me
When everybody’s drinking, I don’t want to
When everybody’s smoking, I don’t need more
When everybody’s fooling, I don’t want to
Everybody but me

I get the creeps from all the people in here
I cannot breathe, it’s too crowded in here, don’t look at me
I don’t wanna be seen, touched, heard, bothered
By the fellas who got the look in their eye
They wanna take me home without knowing my name
They wanna put me on, but do they not know that I’m not like the others?

‘Cause when everybody’s dancing, I don’t want to
When everybody’s joking, I don’t want to
When everybody’s laughing, I don’t want to
Everybody but me
When everybody’s drinking, I don’t want to
When everybody’s smoking, I don’t need more
When everybody’s fooling, I don’t want to
Everybody but me
