Lumineers, The - Don't Wanna Go Lyrics

Years later and I’ll always listen to when I need to cry. It’s aligns with a lot of things I’ve gone through in my life. When I first found this song, I cried and related to the boys the most. Later on, I related to the mom. Throughout the years, I’ve found myself both relating to the mom and the boys depending on what I’m going through. Thank you for this song.

the exhale at the beginning gets me every time

Have they ever played this song live?? Because I can’t find it

Haven’t listened to these guys in years. So much nostalgia.

If I killed myself to any song, it'd be this.

That Guy Kam hope you’re in a better place friend.

When I say the title I was like Not again!! 😞 because I saw avengers infinity where spider man dies

Es putamente hermoso.

Wish this was on apple music tbh.

I feel like the Lumineers fans are all so sad. just judging from some of the comments. But I love reading them. This band is truly beautiful.

I found them in search of something to relieve pain so I'd say you're right

I dont wana go mr stark...

"I don't wanna go Mr. Stark"

How dare you.

“suits were made for men not boys” this just. wow.

where can i buy this song?

RIP deb. Woman had 3 sons basically adopted me she was my school appointed addiction counselor. I recently od'd (accidentally) and was pissed they revived me cause i wanted to be with her. Im almost done with school to be a certified addiction specialist. Love u forever and always deb

why am I so obsessed with you guys ❤

Do you ever realize that all these songs make you really think? They draw you in, they make you really think about ever little problem you have rn, and makes you realize how small it really is , and how one day you won't even remember thst time that place thing or feeling. You just have to enjoy the time and moment you're in rn.

this song speaks to me,not all stories have a happy ending and that's ok too. appreciate the music

I moved out at 14 still finished h.s. with honors. I was smart but also a gangster. now 21 with heroin trafficking charge under me. I lost my h.s. counselor deb, a beautiful woman, always pushed me to do wat is right. She left behind 3 young children. she died from breast cancer too soon. i miss u deb I love u my thoughts and prayers r with your kids.

Youtube needs a love button

Makes me want to visit my grandma

This song makes me cry

Really wish they'd put this one on an album in the future, or at least play it live at their concerts, it's one of the best songs Wes has written

Just wake up, I shouted
There's some blood, around the-
Clean it up, it's okay
Go get help, it's okay
I'm too young and now it's,
It's gone numb around me
Ambulance in driveway
Speeding up the highway

Suits were made for men, not boys
And this faith that we fake is a choice

I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
If it means goodbye
And I don't wanna see
I don't wanna be there
If it's the last time

Hold my brother's hand
And I'm his mother standing
In a sudden panic
Like a drugless addict

It's too late, the moment
When it runs you over
No one's safe, I need her
No one say it's over

Suits were made for men, not boys
So leave me alone
And this faith that we fake is a choice
So take me (home)

I don't wanna go
And I don't wanna go
If it means goodbye
And I don't wanna go
I don't wanna see her
If it's the last time

Why isn't this song on Apple? It's so good and heartbreaking man

Love and peace to you , Cedric. Thanks fer bein!

Today marks the 9th year of my father's death and this song just opened all of my wounds. I was too young back then and I really didn't have a good grip of what was going on with him. Moving on was really hard and the past 8 years did a good job mending everything. But for fuck's sake came this song. It's such a beautiful song and I couldn't love it more but the fact it's making me cry like a bitch right now is something. The chorus brings so much memory the day he was gonna be buried. I never wanted to see him get buried, even see him inside a casket. I begged everyone to leave me alone that day. Fuck. Sorry.

I'm very selective with this topic and sharing this to the world is something. I'm just grateful I found this song. This one's for you, pops.

amazing how music can make us feel like this huh

missing my brothers....
Tony & Eloy

"I don't want to see her, if its the last time " this part resonates so much with me, it reminds me of when my grandmother passed away she was my best friend I loved her so much , but I remember not wanting to go to her wake because I didn't want to see her like that, I didn't want that to be the last memory I had of her . I just remember thinking that I was wrong for feeling that way I felt so ashamed of myself

I can relate almost the exact thing happened to me with my grandma just know that she have and always love you no matter which world she lives in and that she understands what you had to go through watching her suffer like that

The first time I heard this song, it was the day my best friend was put into the hospital for overdosing. She was okay, thank god, but I thought I was going to lose her. This song means so much to me because while it made me cry, it helped me through.

painful

Everytime I hear this it breaks my heart, but I love it so much so I can't stop listening to it.

*Tears running down my cheeks*I don't wanna go

missin.

how I feel

missin ya.

Just a thought that came to mind.. 'This song is not anywhere because it is too rare, to previous, far too raw and beautiful to be places, for some things are like this.'

Absolutely awesome, but, why I can't find this song, even in the CD?

This song is in the extended album

Why isn't this featured on an album so I can properly listen to it

ok my question is why this is not on Cleopatra

+Julia Drendel i know right, i thought this was pretty good

anyone know where I could download this song?

I'm suicidal so whenever I listen to this song that's what I always think of. If my friends would miss me or just forget me...

They would... The stars would... I would... Please don't go 💕

punkrock-flowerboy I think someone who kills oneself has bigger balls than I ever would. If you are judged by anyone for ending you own pain and suffering; thhey weren't good friends to begin with, and they weren't friends who followed you or believed in what you did. You shouldn't live to be judged by anyone. I don't want to be judged either, everyday I feel like im being judged and not one person can be honest with me; My family, my friends, my co-workers, even my dog. My self depreciating thoughts have led me to believe thoughts about everyone that aren't possibly real. I Don't want to believe that everyone is evil, but I do believe it.
All of this is why I want to kill myself. I want to end other peoples suffering;
the pain of knowing me and dealing with me. I don't know if you have ever "died" before. I never have so I couldn't tell you what's next, but living just makes me feel so... ALIVE. But its you, not me. Do people care about you, do you trust others, do you have the courage to tell people when you don't trust them. I have none of those things so my life if hard, really hard.I o. The other hand will chose to live for now; I cant die thinking im crazy, not knowing my own truth and means of existence. So if you have the balls (not assuming gender), fuckin' do it pussy! But if you want to stay here and worry about what people think, That's fine too because that's what I am choosing to do.

Dont go these people they dont matter you matter the most spread love and you will feel it coming back at you and dont be guilty for what you have done or not done there is always time

From the sound of it, you derive a lot of your worth from what other people think of you. Wondering whether or not your friends would miss you seems like a giant waste of energy

smiling on the outside, dead inside, day after day trying to make other people happy, i don't want to suffer anymore, but don't worry, i put your name on the bullet so everyone knows you were the last thing that went though my head~

#AmyHiggins

not "The Lumineers"

+Shivom Mishra its from their first ep, released about 5 years prior to The Lumineers (album). It's them.

I love you and I miss you. I wish you didn't do this to yourself but I forgive you.

+Kimmie Brooke <3

That sigh at the beginning gives so much meaning....

!!! yes yes yes

I feel the comment section ruins songs...

I completely agree with you. 100%.

Seriously.

Somebody knows, why they are not performing this song? I can't find this song live version on yt... Anyway, so emotional, so beautiful, so powerful...

these guys are great cause of a few reasons and one being simplicity . . . They found a flow that is going on and that we are all riding . . . but its universal but the style of music plays to a few . . . A few that enjoy to sit back in a back yard watching Fire-Flies flashing about in the dew filled night . . . takes us back to simple times . . . playing in the mud making mud pies :D . . . lol . . . Takes me personally back to my first kiss when I was 7 . . . .

Worst song by the lumineers.

Beautiful ♡

wtf am i thinkin? either way theres regret..i wish i had someone to talk to about this mess. unfortunately there is no one who cares nor anyone who would even feign interest..fmgdl.

are you serious..? why would you care? why not step over this human piece of garbage? thank you for acknowledging my struggle..

@deadinside No life is worth stepping over. Yes, I am serious. Believe it or not, there are people who either care for you at the moment or will care about you in the future.
There's something good at the end of every struggle.

Cee Tee I know it might have been 2 years but I still want you to know that peoples are there to help and that some people really do care I just read your post and I want you to know that I care about you.

Xavier Michaud thank you. it means alot to hear that strangers still care. thankfully im doin well today and semi glad to be around :-) im glad to see this comment after all this time knowing im better :-)

No problems I was waiting for an answer and i didn't knew if I would get one but I hope you're doing fine now and keep on going ;-).Life might be hard sometimes but never give up it's the best gift you've ever been given and you can't replace it.Have a nice day ;-)

I wish they had this song on Spotify!! Every time i wanna listen to it, I have to come here... worth it though!! Love this song.. my favorite since the beginning

Why don´t you download it?

always find myself listening to the lumineers after a break up, seems to help tho. Great music

Try dating less lol just have fun & focus on the right girl

@Tracey Soto I'm sure people usually date with the idea that the person they're dating is potentially the right girl. It doesn't always work out.

@Danny Spooner Part of life, bro. Don't let life get you down. There is always hope.

Such a moving song

Music is phenomenal..

This song is pain... not beauty.

Sometimes, you have to find beauty in the midst of the pain to survive.

@Kat Poll Finding sometimes in the beautiful pain of survival

+Kat Poll thats the most beautiful thing ive ever heard

@AustinRock oh shit my bad I thought you were referencing Wesley lol shit my bad dude!!!!!!!!

@AustinRock it was actually is best friend that died of a drug overdose. He connected with his best friends younger brother after the death and they began to write

I have loved the Lumineers for so long I can;t say how much I love Wesley, Jeremiah, and Neyla. After my mom passed away I heard this song and I became even more connected with them. I love his song. 

Im sorry for your loss.

@xKwissiwa It's okay but thank you :) 

I'm sorry too, Makalia. Be strong and positive. 

I'm sorry too, Makalia. Life is hard, but try to be strong and positive. 

His older brother died of a drug overdose, thats why he started writing music. Theese lyrics are heartbreaking to hear when you think of that.. couldnt imagine.

heartbreaking

it was jeremiah's (the drummer's) brother josh who died of a drug overdose at the age of 17 i think? he was the lead singer's best friend.

i cant believe i just heard this today. why wasnt this on their album??

My favorite song by them so far~

i seriously just love this group. 

Why is this not on iTunes!!!

youtube-mp3 . org

Almost a year ago my ex-boyfriend left to Japan for deployment. I remember laying in bed, while he packed his belongings. I played this song and cried because somehow i knew it was the end of "us". Sure enough, our love story ended. He remained in the Marines and forgot about me. This song reminds me how much i love him still. Mj loves you forever Aj

Why is this not on their album!?

This is exactly how losing someone you love feels like, this is what death means...''I don't wanna see, I don't wanna be there if it's the last time''...No words...

heartbreaking

This is 6cheek, no?

this song is so beautiful... it makes me think of the times when im alone and i have no one to talk to. all i ever end up doing is sitting alone and end up talking to myself like i have some mental issue, i get into full conversations and i dont have a real person to talk to....

Reminds me of my little brother when my pops passed away.. Ugh

Best. Song ever!!!

still happy to be alive and thinking about the last time for my grand parents and mum .i don't want to go

is this song not on the album i belong with you is not on the album?

AUDREY COME BACK, I LOVE YOU!!!!! :'(

People cmon quit putting your personal business on the internet. Hate when people do that.

I don't want to leave her if its the last time. Maybe addiction which ended in suicide. All too familiar with this.....really hit me deep.

I feel it means a son is not suppose to bury his mother. "Suits were meant for men not boys" meaning "Men" wear suits not children and children are not suppose to bury their parents.

My favorite song from them

Started tearing up after reading the comments

wow. I can't believe I havent heard this til now. That was one of the most beautiful songs ive ever been so lucky to have come across.

Needs a 10 hours version.

completely agree, however what really tugged at my hearts strings when I first heard this song was the piano, with that great minor chord it hits at the end of the chorus. this is a stunningly beautiful song.

I can relate, just over a year ago I was in a car crash with my best friend and his sister, who was driving. I had known them and their family for the majority of my life. Him and I came out unharmed but she died on the scene. I can't imagine what the scenario was that the lead singer was in, but the song describes my situation almost to a tee. This song is an example of how something horrific and tragic can still be inspiration to make something beautiful to touch others' lives with.

I love how their music is so raw and not edited. And it sounds amazing!!

Someone definitely hacked my account. I didn't write that. Definitely a diehard plan of The Lumineers.

Sorry for your loss.

god bless you!

this is music. love this song, why wasnt this on the album?

40 people did wanna go!

I can't explain how much this touched me. It's just..I can't put it into words.

Thank you, Charlotte Morse.

This is real music, this is a real band, and this song knows how to speak to open souls. I can't put into words how many times I've listened to this song and realized that I'm lucky to be alive today.

Found out something today and I thought it was true.. Well I dont wanna go.. If it means good bye..

This is literally my favorite song now. (':

Thankyou you tube for making this suggestion for me; A friend of mine overdosed yesterday. Its helpful.

I want this song playing at my funeral

I think he's channeling Thom Yorke in this song, lol, sounds good to me.

Okay everyone:
Click on a new tab and go to rainy mood.com while you listen to this song.
You are very welcome.

True music envokes emotion....how can a sound be astheticaly pleasing...?image defines our mainstream music its very sad. Cool, hip and trendy are my least favorite words under swag of course. I don't get how dressing cool or saying stupid catch phrases or portraying yourself in a certain way makes you an artist, I think it makes you a whore and a slave to the mighty dollar bill...ex. lil wayne, the guy would probly kiss another man for the right amount...oh wait.
