Be Something (Live)

If I talked a mile a minute 
Would you still be standing knee deep in it?
And if I stepped across the line
Would I find you there on the other side? 

It’s hard to be nothing at all 
‘cause we all wanna be something
And it’s hard to be seen as nothing at all 
‘cause we are tryin’ to be something bigger than ourselves

If I talked in circles now
Would you follow me around and ‘round? 
If I stepped outside my comfort zone
Would you find some common ground? 

It’s hard to be nothing at all 
‘cause we all wanna be something
And it’s hard to be seen as nothing at all 
‘cause we are tryin’ to be something bigger than ourselves

Well I don’t even know why you ask why
(I don’t know)
And I don’t even know why I try sometimes

If I talked back or threw my hands up in the air 
Would you just stare? 
And if I stepped beyond myself and became someone else
Would you care? 

It’s hard to be nothing at all 
‘cause we all wanna be something
And it’s hard to be seen as nothing at all 
‘cause we are tryin’ to be something bigger than ourselves

Oh… 

And it’s hard to be seen as nothing at all 
‘cause we are tyring to be something bigger than ourselves
