Lyrics Rob Thomas - Something To Be

Hey man,
I don't wanna hear about love no more,
I don't wanna talk about how I feel,
I don't really wanna be me,
No, no more.

Dress down,
And now I look a little too boy next door,
Or maybe I should try to find a downtown whore
That'll make me look hardcore,
I need you to tell me what to stand for.

I've been looking for something,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Something I've never seen,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
We're all looking for something,
Something to be, yeah, yeah.

Hey man,
Play another one of those heartbreak songs,
Tell another story how things go wrong,
They never getting back,
My pain is a platinum static, that shit back.
You don't wanna be me when it all goes wrong,
You don't wanna see me with the houselights on,
I'm a little too headstrong,
Stand tall, I don't wanna get walked on.

I've been looking for something,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Something I've never seen,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
We're all looking for something,
Something to be, yeah, yeah,
Something to be, yeah.

I can't stand what I'm starting to be,
No, I can't stand the people that I'm starting to need,
There's so much now that can go wrong,
And I don't need nobody trying to help it along.
It's the same old song,
Everybody says you've been away too long,
Everybody wanna tell you what went wrong,
Wanna make you like an icon,
Till you believe that they're right.

I've been looking for something,
Something I've never seen,
We're all looking for something,
Something to be, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

I've been looking for something,
Yeah yeah yeah!
Something I've never seen,
Yeah yeah yeah!
We're all looking for something,
Something to be, yeah, yeah,
Something to be,
Something to be, yeah, yeah,
Something to be,
Something to be,
Something to be,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
