Lyrics:
It’s hard enough to know
Where you’re really supposed to go
When you’re looking for a friendly face
Book a ticket to another place
You move your lips to speak
But they look at you like you’re a freak
It’s a struggle just to stay alive
Journals burning in a burning fire
Everyone stares, but nobody ever sees you
You go searching everywhere
But the feeling never leaves you
And you can’t always want what you get
When you’re looking for love
In a cafe on the internet
You want somewhere to hide
Where everyone can find you
You join hands with the world and say
I just want my space
Some people say the future’s past
We’re going down in an electro-blast
There are plenty other acts like you
Tube is full of them and they can see right through you
It’s a big bad world out there
Everybody looking for a GIF to share
And you’re crying out to find your friends
Turn around and they are gone again
Everyone stares, but nobody ever sees you
Try to vanish in thin air
But the feeling, it never leaves you
And you can’t always want what you get
When you’re looking for love
In a cafe on the internet
You want somewhere to hide
Where everyone can find you
You join hands with the world and say
I just want my space
And you can’t always want what you get
When you’re looking for love
In a cafe on the internet
You want somewhere to hide
Where everyone can find you
You join hands with the world and say
I just want to go where nobody knows my name
And no one notices or cares whether I came
I just want my friends altogether in one place
I just want control over the way they see my face
I just want to friend the entire human race
I just want my space
I just want my space
I just want my space
I just want my space
I just want my space
