Greensboro (I don’t wanna go)

What is there to do if you’re under the age of thirty-one
And starting a family with your high school sweetheart?
I’ve wandered those streets all my life
And can't find anything but transphobes who use my dead name as a paper board for darts

Oh smith street diner closed down and they took out your house too
I've watched everything that matters at all in this town just fall apart
A grim history of bigotry and massacre
But they still consider it a hub for high culture and the performing arts

Oh I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro
No I don't wanna go home to Greensboro ever again I don't wanna go home to Greensboro

Say it with me
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro
No I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again i don't wanna go to Greensboro

I had nothing to gain but twenty years of pain
I fully went insane
The triad is so fucking lame
And so I changed my name
Gathered all my things
And then I took the train up north
Never to return again
If I have to go back I’ll paint the fucking wall with my own brain

No I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again I don't wanna go home to Greensboro
No I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again I don't wanna go home to Greensboro
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again
I don't wanna go home to Greensboro

I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go home
I don't wanna go home

I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro
I don’t want to go home to Greensboro ever again
I don't wanna go because I fucking hate it there
