These towns we live in seem so really strange
Like no one ever wants to change
It's like a busload of strangers came to try and make a name
Now they're living here just the same
Then this man came along
To try to sing this song
To try to make things right
To try to make them see his side
But I can't stand it
These people don't get it
No one understands it
I think it's so pathetic
If I could be like you
Then maybe I could be unknown (x2)
The stale air seeks out everybody's dreams
It'll leave you breathless and unseen
So take a deep breath before you really see
And feed your arm the town I.V.
Then this man came along
To try to sing this song
To try to make things right
To try to make them see his side
But I can't stand it
These people don't get it
No one understands it
I think it's so pathetic
If I could be like you
Then maybe I could be unknown (x2)
Unknown
And in this bigger plan
Came along an older man
Who said you can trust me?
Soon you'll join reality
