I Don't Wanna Go There Lyrics

I don't wanna go there
I don't wanna go there anymore
I don't wanna go there
I don't wanna go there anymore

Cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone

You're the one who told me
You're the one who told me what to say
Would you come and hold me?
Would you come and show me right away?

Cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone

And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it

I don't wanna waste it
I don't wanna waste it anymore
Could you help me face it?
Help me before I run right for the door

Cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone

Should I walk alone?
Should I take it home? Should I tear
It's not gonna go
It's not gonna go well

Cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone
Cause I'm gone

And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it
And the world it spins around you, I believe it
And the world it really needs you, now I see it

Cover art for I Don't Wanna Go There lyrics by Dinosaur Jr.

This song, to me is a prayer. Not to a specific God or to any specific religion, but a cry to hope. He is praying to hope as if hope was a person. People lose hope because they walk away from it(Cause I'm gone). The narrator is acknowledges that the world needs hope, and that it is this hope that keeps the world in motion. Hoping for a new day and a better future.
