There it goes, another one is gone
Another try, another one is wrong
But where to go? What is there to say, here?
No one knows I've never really felt
Good about the hand that I've been dealt
What kind of game is this anyway, here?
I want to make a statement
About the pictures and their awful placement
I want everyone to see it too
I've tried to be someone
But I don't know how, I don't know how
I've tried to be the one
But it's over now, it's over now
I can see the loneliness in you
I know it well, and everybody's got it too
Funny how I know I'm not alone, here
That's how it seems when I'm walking through the halls
Everyone has reinforced their walls
It's no one's fault that the vision ain't at all clear
I don't know what is worse than
Feelin' like you're not a person
And I want everyone to sing along
I've tried to be someone
But I don't know how, I don't know how
I've tried to be the one
But it's over now, it's over...
All I ever wanted was to reach out
(Reach out...)
And have somebody take my hand
(Someone take my hand...)
All I've ever gotten was locked out
(Locked out...)
Nobody would ever understand
I've tried to be someone
But I don't know how, I don't know how
I've tried to be the one
But it's over now, it's over...
I've tried to be someone
But I don't know how, I don't know how
I've tried to be someone
But it's over now, it's over...
