No matter how I try
I'm still afraid to die
This room gets so lonely
Wondering if anyone really knows me
You want them to know you were here
Breathing the air, watching TV

(You were someone's baby)
And every song is about you but you never knew
(You were someone's baby)
(You were someone's baby)
All my words always flew right over your head
(You were someone's baby)

Tell me where do I belong
I put my whole life into songs
I don't want to sell anything to anyone
I don't want to be a part of your parade
I don't want to be a part of your parade

No one has to know why
I can't stay dry
This world gets so lonely
I just wanted to know if you'd wanna get to know me
I want you to know I was here
Swimming in the air
Watching you eat

(I was someone's baby)
And every word was about you
(I was someone's baby)
(I was someone's baby)
But you never knew
(I was someone's baby)
All my songs always flew right over your head
(I was someone's baby)

Tell me where do I belong
I put my whole life into songs
I don't want to sell anything to anyone
I don't want to be a part of your parade
I don't want to be a part of your parade
