Something to Be - Rob Thomas

Hey man

I don’t wanna hear about love no more

I don’t wanna talk about how I feel

I don’t really wanna be me no more

Dress down now I look a little too

Boy next door

Maybe I should try to find a downtown whore

That’ll make me look hardcore

I need you to tell me what to stand for

I’ve been looking for something

Something I’ve never seen

We’re all looking for something

Something to be

Hey man

Play another one of those heartbreak songs

Tell another story how things go wrong

And they never get back

My pain is a platinum stack

Take that shit back

You don’t wanna be me when it all goes wrong

You don’t wanna see me with the houselights on

I’m a little too headstrong

Stand tall

I don’t wanna get walked on

I can’t stand what I’m starting to be

I can’t stand the people that I’m starting to need

There’s so much now

That can go wrong

And I don’t need nobody

Trying to help it along

It’s the same old song

Everybody says you’ve been away too long

Everybody wanna tell you what went wrong

Wanna make you like an icon

Til you believe that they’re right
