Somebody Else

Don't know your name but I think you're a model
I swear I saw you in an ad for McDonald's
Yeah, life is strange but at least you got paid
At least you look like you've got something to say

Reading Marx just to pass the time
An evening class in product design
The cigarettes aren't going to smoke themselves
Can't live your life for anyone else

I've got a job and I went to school
Everything I was supposed to do
Yeah, life is strange but at least I get paid
And I can act like I've got something to say
But I can't shake this feeling
Maybe I'm cheating myself
And this is not what I needed
And I've been living like I'm somebody else

'Cause this is not what I'm supposed to do
And no one cares where I went to school
It doesn't matter how you get paid
As long as you can make it through the days

And if you can't shake this feeling
Then baby, you're cheating yourself
'Cause this is not what you needed
And you've been living like you're somebody else

But I don't know what to do with myself
I can't explain to you the things that I feel
I don't wanna lead a life half-lived
I wanna really know I exist

I wanna drive a car into the Sun
I wanna feel everything at once
I wanna quit my job and move to Japan
I wanna stay in bed as long as I can
I wanna drink until my brain explodes
I wanna go where nobody goes
I wanna die doing what I love
I wanna feel like I'm doing enough
