Rob Thomas lyrics - Something to Be

album: Something to Be (2005)
genre:

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, 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 (yeah yeah yeah) 
Something I've never seen (yeah yeah yeah) 
We're all looking for something 
Something to be, yeah yeah 

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've been looking for something (yeah yeah yeah) 
Something I've never seen (yeah yeah yeah) 
We're all looking for something 
Something to be, yeah yeah 
Something to be, yeah 

I can't stand what I'm starting to be 
No, 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 anybody 
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 
Till you believe that they're right 

I've been looking for something 
Something I've never seen 
We're all looking for something 
Something to be (yeah, yeah, yeah) 

I've been looking for something (yeah yeah yeah) 
Something I've never seen (yeah yeah yeah) 
We're all looking for something 
Something to be, yeah yeah 
Something to be [till fade]
