Imaginary Lifestyle

I don't wanna be famous
I just want you to know me
No, I don't need fame
But my name on your lips might help me feel less lonely

I don't need to be a sports car rock star
But, damn, that sounds kinda comfy
I don't need a lot of money
But it beats walking round with my hand in a pocket full of empty

I don't think I'm asking for a lot
I'm not trying to be something I'm not

I keep living this imaginary lifestyle
Creating things that I'll never become
Wanna run but standing still in the meanwhile
A nobody just trying to be some
One day when I'm chillin' by the poolside
Looking back on the things that I've done
I'll send a smile to the boy that I am now
A nobody just trying to be someone.

I don't wanna waste your time
I just want your attention
An apparent cataclysm of narcissism
But I mean it with the best intentions

I don't need be a jet-setter go-getter
But I'm aiming to fly sky high
I don't need to turn heads but I wouldn't mind a look in my direction as I walk on by I

I don't think I'm asking for a lot
I'm not trying to be something I'm not

I keep living this imaginary lifestyle
Creating things that I'll never become
Wanna run but standing still in the meanwhile
A nobody just trying to be some
One day when I'm chillin' by the poolside
Looking back on the things that I've done
I'll send a smile to the boy that I am now
A nobody just trying to be some

One day I'm gonna make it happen
One day you're gonna know my name
I'm not the best, or best dressed
No, I'm no champion
But I know where I'm going
I'm runnin' towards it all the same

I don't think I'm asking for a lot
I'm not trying to be something I'm not

I keep living this imaginary lifestyle
Creating things that I'll never become
Wanna run but standing still in the meanwhile
A nobody just trying to be some
One day when I'm chillin' by the poolside
Looking back on the things that I've done
I'll send a smile to the boy that I am now
A nobody just trying to be someone
