I grew up on a cul de sac, hiding in a kingdom of one Microphone and a paperback notebook and the setting sun Sometimes I felt special, sometimes I felt incredibly small But that's nothing special, that's everybody after all I thought I was alone We're all the stars of our own play Until the curtain falls away I give up, I was wrong I belong, I belong But no more than anyone else am I When we're padded and praised, even with the best intentions of love There's a coming of age and we have the choice to rise above Sometimes we feel special, sometimes we feel like we don't exist But we're only special the way that everybody is I thought I was alone We're all the stars of our own play Until the curtain falls away I give up, I was wrong I belong, I belong And no more than anyone else am I No more than anyone else am I No more and no less, no less am I No more, no less am I I thought I was alone We're all the stars of our own play Until the curtain falls away I give up, I was wrong I belong, I belong No more than anyone else am I No more than anyone else am I No more and no less, no less am I No more, no less am I
