September 2, 1998

I wanna be a rock star
dye my hair green and purple
pierce my tongue
tattoo my body
and nobody would care
I want a change
I don't want to be or live this me
anymore

(Will repeat later...I'm too lazy)
I'm sick of being me
17 and sick of what I have
I'm sick of being me
time to get a new life

I wanna be a famous athelete
scream when I make a goal
have security
do whatever I please
get recognized in a crowd
in the spotlight for once
I don't want to know this me
anymore

(Repeat) 

Why can't I be someone different
and start over fresh and new
This world is obsessed with
preconceived images of perfection,
the norm,
it makes me 
sick too
I want to be me
not what they say I should be
It's not fair that they
won't let me do what I 
really wanna do

I wanna be a movie star
be on the big screen
say whatever I want
have people love and know me
be someone I'm not
live new things
I don't want others to know this me 
anymore

(Repeat)

This life just ain't livin'
it's time to trade it in
for something new and better

 
I'm tired...
