I've got nothing to prove, and i've got nothing to hide
Just a kid with some problems, and i try to keep in mind
That people can't bring me down, they can't push me around
I'm just an average guy who wants to make it right
Don't wanna live being a stupid nobody
I just want a job to live on my own
But i don't want to pick up the usual beat
So i've got to make it on my own, alone
I don't wanna be a suit and tie guy
And be a part of the daily grind thing
I just wanna travel riding coast to coast
Touring, traveling, everything and nothing
I wanna make a move, doing something that's useful
Wanna clean my mind from all the useless things i've did
And all these years, i've been wondering why?
It was a waste of time and now it's time to go
[Solo]
I must find a way, living with the two sides of me
I'm a perfectionist but a lazy one
The only thing i see i the band and me
But we've got to work hard if we want to make it happen
[Chorus: x2]
