I once knew a man who had his whole world in little bags He took them out, and every night he made sure that he felt alive, well rest a**ured He don't come around here anymore I use to think I'd never be But now it seems that he is me And we all know The story goes We toss and turn and every night, just feel like giving up the fight and I I need a little more room to breathe I never thought I could be 21 and say that I'm still I once knew a girl Who was so caught in her own world She used the drug that she called love It was everything she was dreaming of
Until one day her love Got up and walked away What use to be security Just ended her reality And we all know The story goes We toss and turn and every night, just feel like giving up the fight and I I need a little more room to breathe I never thought I could be 21 and say that I'm still waiting now Don't worry because before long, well everything that's right will soon be wrong So, tell me there's more to my whole life than finding ways to stay alive I know that I can't be as desperate as I seem
