Jump
Simple Plan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't want to wake up today
'Cause everyday's the same
And I've been waiting so long
For things to change
I'm sick of this town
Sick of my job
Sick of my friends
'Cause everyone's jaded
Sick of this place
I want to break free
I'm so frustrated

I just want to jump (jump!)
Don't want to think about tomorrow (jump!)
I just don't care tonight
I just want to jump (jump!)
Don't want to think my sorrow
Let's go, whoa:
Forget your problems
I just want to jump

I don't want to wake up one day
And find out it's too late
To do all the things I want to do
So I'm gonna pack up my bags
I'm never coming back
'cause the years are passing by
And I've wasted all my t-t-time

I'm sick of this house
Sick of being broke
Sick of this town that's bringing me down
I'm sick of this place
I want to break free
I'm so frustrated

I just want to jump (jump!)
Don't want to think about tomorrow (jump!)
I just don't care tonight
I just want to jump (jump!)
Don't want to think my sorrow
Let's go, whoa:
Forget your problems I just want to jump
I just want to jump

I can't take it anymore
I can't take it anymore
I can't take it anymore

Forget tomorrow
I just want to jump (jump!)
Don't want to think about tomorrow (jump!)
I just don't care tonight
I just want to jump (jump!)
Don't want to think my sorrow
Let's go, whoa:
Forget your problems
Time to let them go
Whoa
Forget tomorrow
I just want to jump (jump!)
I just want to jump (jump!)
Yeah!




I just want to jump (jump!)
I just want to jump

I hope that everyone here is okay. Please be safe and remember that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. If you are feeling troubled, maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. I wish you all the best.
