It seems like you want me to be someone.
I think I'm just another nobody.
You can dress me up and send me on my way, but you'll never get the kid out of me.
I know that I'm not half the man that you thought I should be, but one day I hope you'll see.
There's no way that one hundred of your books could be equal to one hundred things I've seen.
A new stage in a new world every night, and one thousand midnight highway dreams.
I know I'm not half the man that you thought I should be, but I've traveled even further than their narrowed minds can see.
I know I'm not half the man that you thought I should be (first time)
There's more to my life you'll see. (second time)
Can't you realize that I'm just me, the real me?
That's all I want to be.
