lyrics
well, it's times like these that i think about ending
everything in mind, but maybe i'm giving too
much attention to myself, and maybe thinking 'bout
my past as someone else, i can't...
take it anymore, my life's become a bore, and i
well, i want something new
cuz, i'm so damn sick of this shit,
can't find a single reason why i sit here
when i want to be somewhere else,
'persist in vain' , i tell myself, i
i can't be someone, i can't be someone
i can't be someone, why can't i be somebody else?
why can't i be..., somebody else?
but i know this answers nothing because
every time i'll just end up where i was, i've got
nothing to say, nothing to sell,
'persist in vain' , i tell myself...
i can't be someone, i can't be someone
i can't be someone, why can't i be somebody else?
why can't i be..., somebody else?
somebody else ... somebody else?
you've got to see, how much this means to me, i
i can't afford, to lose this time, i know
that it's gonna take as much as i can make
and maybe push me to the point that i break
well, it's too much, yeah it's too much
i can't take it!
i know i, i can't be someone, i can't be someone
i can't be someone, why can't i be somebody else?
why can't i be..., somebody else!
