I’m just the boy inside the man

not exactly who you think I am

Trying to trace my steps back here again

so many times

I’m just a speck inside your hand

you came and made me who I am

I remember where it all began so clearly

I feel a million miles away

still you connect me in your way

And you create in me

something I would’ve never seen

When I could only see the floor

you made my window a door

So when they say they don’t believe

I hope that they see you in me

After all the lights go down

I’m just the words you are the sound

A strange type of chemistry

how you’ve become a part of me

And when I sit alone at night

your thoughts burn through me like a fire

You’re the only one who knows

who I really am

We all wanna be somebody

we just need a taste of

who we are

We all wanna be somebody

we’re willing to go

but not that far

And we’re all see through just like glass

And we can shatter just as fast

That light’s been burned out for a while

I still see it every time I pass

It was lost in the corners of my mind

Behind a box of reasons why

I never doubted it was there

It just took a little time to find

(and even when)

I feel a million miles away

still you connect me in your way

And you create in me

something I would’ve never seen

When I could only see the floor

you made my window a door

So when they say they don’t believe

I hope that they see you in me

After all the lights go down

I’m just the words you are the sound

A strange type of chemistry

how you’ve become a part of me

And when I sit alone at night

your thoughts burn through me like a fire

You’re the only one who knows

who I really am

We all wanna be somebody

we just need a taste of

who we are

We all wanna be somebody

we’re willing to go

but not that far

We all wanna be somebody

we just need a taste of

who we are

We all wanna be somebody

we’re willing to go

but not that far

I’m just the boy inside the man

not exactly who you think I am

Trying to trace my steps back here again

so many times

When I could only see the floor

you made my window a door

So when they say they don’t believe

I hope that they see you
