Believe in me 'cause I don't believe in anything...

...and I wanna be someone who believes.

Bio
She don't want nobody near
But you can't get away from that
They appear and disappear
And they all get a string attatched

Pretty soon they got you hanging on the line
Pretty soon they're saying one by one the same old rhyme
They say, "I'm all right, I just can't get home tonight."

She don't want nobody home
'Cause it's a little too crowded there
But she don't want to be alone
So they just keep pouring in

Pretty soon they got her headed for the door
She comes home to find they're not hanging around no more
She says, "I'm all right, you just can't get home tonight."

Don't you wonder what she looks like in the light?
She says, "I'm all right, I just can't get home tonight."

Pretty white washed lies
Endless alibis
And reasons that need cleaning every night
Half a world away
You can't wash away
The stain of the deceiving
And the things that you cannot believe, and well...

She don't want no one around
'Cause she don't want anybody to see
What she looks like when she's down
'Cause that's a really sad place to be

Pretty soon she gets them crawling up the walls
Then she wonders why they beg her please to never call
She says, "It's okay. I'm all right. Hey, look who's on TV tonight."
She says, "I'm all right, I just can't get home tonight."

Don't you wonder why it's dark outside at night?
She says, "I'm all right, I just can't get home tonight."
She says, "I'm all right, I just can't get home tonight."

-She Don't Want Nobody Near, the Counting Crows
