When i was a young kid
Growing up
Happy with life not 
Crying out
Laying in bed and 
Playing out dreams
Life was simple
Life was clean
But i got old and felt the life
Tension came so i was high
Guilty pleasure
No excuse
But now i find myself

Why am i
Don't wanna be somebody
Why am i
Leaving my faith behind me
Why am i
Losing the man inside me

Checking back today
I'm full of steam
Growing up has made me obscene
Every day is the same 
Striking back at me again
I'm passing by and living out
Life has made me wanna shout
Take me back to the start
But now i find myself

Why am i
Don't wanna be somebody
Why am i
Leaving my faith behind me
Why am i
Losing the man inside me.

Always on the outside
Looking in
Step behind dead under my skin

Why am i
Don't wanna be somebody
Why am i
Leaving my faith behind me
Why am i
Losing the man inside me.
